Simply Delicious Baby Spinach Salad



Ingredients:

Salad:

  • Fresh baby spinach, washed
  • 1 large red pepper, sliced
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 16 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • Cut or shredded carrots
  • Crumbled feta or goat cheese
  • Alfalfa sprouts
  • 2 handfuls raw unsalted almonds (sliced if preferred)
  • 2-4 hardboiled eggs, sliced (one egg for each serving)

Dressing*:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (if you find raw garlic too strong, use roasted garlic instead)
  • 10 sun dried tomatoes, chopped
  • Pinch dried basil
  • 1-2 teaspoon lemon juice (to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar  


Directions:

  1. Combine all salad ingredients, except the hard boiled eggs and alfalfa sprouts, in a large bowl.
  2. In a smaller bowl, combine dressing ingredients and stir until combined. Drizzle over salad and toss. To avoid putting too much dressing on, drizzle only a few tablespoons at a time and toss. Add more accordingly - you shouldn't have a pool of dressing at the bottom of the bowl.
  3. Divide salad into individual bowls or plates, top with sprouts and egg slices. Enjoy.

*You can make the dressing ahead of time and store in the fridge for up to a week.
