Spinach and Avocado Salad



Spinach and Avocado Salad
(Recipe Source: Pam’s For the Love of Cooking)

Ingredients:
Baby spinach
1-2 avocados, diced
Cherry tomatoes, quartered
Red onion diced
Craisins
Orange
Croutons
Parmesan cheese, shaved
Simple Vinaigrette (recipe below)

  • Place the baby spinach in a large bowl then top with the avocados, tomatoes, red onion, craisins, croutons, and Parmesan cheese.

Vinaigrette:
1/4 cup canola oil
1 1/2 tbsp seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 red wine vinegar
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 tsp sugar
Sea salt and Freshly cracked pepper, to taste
  • Make the vinaigrette at least 30 minutes prior to serving the salad so the flavors have time to mingle. Combine the ingredients together and whisk well before serving.
  • Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad to taste; toss until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
