Spinach Salad with Dried Cherries
This salad, from Everyday Food, was so delicious and it takes all of five minutes to make.
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper
8 ounces baby spinach
1/2 cup thin slice red onions
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/4 cup raw shelled pumpkin seeds toasted (I used toasted pine nuts)
To toast the pumpkin seeds, spread in a single layer in a pie plate; bake in a 350-degree oven until pulled and brown, about ten minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard, and oil until combined and thickened; season with salt and pepper.
Add spinach, onion, and cherries; toss to combine. Serve immediately, topped with pumpkin seeds.
Grade: A+

oh that looks so good I'm going to make it right now! O.k. I lied. I'm too lazy. But I am going to order a spinach salad and make it another time! Thanks for the inspiration! ;)
It is really my new favorite salad. And you can use sunflower seeds instead of pumpkin seeds or pine nuts. Sunflower seeds on salads is so good!
