Spinach and Red Grape Crunchy Salad Recipe


This is a recipe my sister Marilyn shared with me.  Fresh spinach, red grapes, red onion, sesame sticks and crunchy toasted pine nuts are tossed together with a raspberry vinaigrette.

Inspired by The Year of the Gadfly

Prep Time:  15 minutes     Servings:  8

Spinach and Red Grape Crunchy Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of baby spinach
  • 1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced thin
  • 1 cup salted sesame sticks*
  • 1/2 cup of pine nuts, toasted**
  • 1 jar of raspberry vinaigrette, chilled

Instructions

  1. Wash and pat dry baby spinach.  Place in large serving bowl.  Top with grapes, onion, sesame sticks and pine nuts.
  2. Serve with chilled raspberry vinaigrette dressing.

**  I toast my pine nuts by placing them in a small frying pan over medium-high heat.  Shake the pan until the pine nuts are golden brown.
