Tangy Spinach Salad With Strawberry Dressing Recipe

I’m usually good at coming up with great ideas for dinner, but a healthy side dish to go along with dinner is another story. I tend to focus only on the main dish, so by the time we eat, I either don’t have a side dish to go with the meal, or I just throw a small salad. Since salads have become a side dish staple in our household, I decided to spice things up with this excellent tangy spinach salad with strawberry dressing. I love strawberries in anything, so I knew this dish wouldn’t disappoint. My husband and I both enjoyed it.

If you like to make things ahead of time, which I do, you can make the dressing hours before dinner and store it in the refrigerator. I made the dressing using my little food chopper, which worked nicely. Also, I purchased a little bottle of champagne to make the dressing rather than buying an entire bottle for a tablespoon and a half. The almonds and strawberries are delicious with this dressing – you must make this tangy spinach salad soon!
