Strawberry Spinach Salad from Ilene Bartton

Salad Ingredients:
1 bag baby spinach
1/2 head romaine lettuce (optional)
3 cups sliced mushrooms
1-2 cups sliced strawberries
½ red onion thinly sliced
½ cup bacon bits (optional)
½ cup almond slivers (optional)
Chopped Avocados (optional)

Crumbled blue cheese or feta (optional)

Dressing Ingredients:
1 cup olive oil (or vegetable oil)
½ cup red wine vinegar
½ cup white sugar
½ tsp. mustard powder
1 Tb. grated red onion (for added flavor)

Combine all salad ingredients. Toss with dressing just before serving. (Dressing goes a long way, so just add small amounts at a time for the consistency you want.) Salad is best served cold. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese or almonds slivers if desired.

This is the salad we made at our last enrichment dinner! Except we used walnuts, insead of almonds. So good either way I'm sure!
