A refreshing citrus dressing accents the salad for my popular menu. I often toss in some meslun lettuce with the spinach and add apples for variety. —Arlene Butler, Ogden, Utah Ingredients:
3 tablespoons orange juice concentrate |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
1-1/2 teaspoons chopped onion |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1-1/2 teaspoons poppy seeds |
1 package (10 ounces) fresh baby spinach |
1 can (15 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained |
2/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a blender, combine the orange juice concentrate, sugar, vinegar, onion and salt. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds. Transfer to a small pitcher or bowl. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until chilled.
2. On salad plates, arrange the spinach, mandarin oranges and almonds. Drizzle with dressing. Yield: 6 servings.
