Supreme Strawberry Spinach Salad

What You Need:

 

1 (8 oz.) pkg. baby spinach

1/4 C red onion, sliced into rings

1 pint strawberries, sliced

8 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled

1/4 C red onion, sliced into rings

1 C mayonnaise

1/2 C sugar

1/4 C raspberry vinegar

 

How to Make It:

 

Put the spinach into a large salad bowl.

Layer the onion rings over the spinach.

Spread the sliced strawberries over the spinach.

Sprinkle the bacon over the top of the entire salad.

Place the mayonnaise into a mixing bowl.

Sprinkle the sugar into the bowl with the mayonnaise.

Pour the raspberry vinegar into the mixture and whisk until the ingredients are completely incorporated together.

Pour the dressing over the salad and allow it to set 15 minutes while the dressing soaks into the salad.

 

Serves:  8

 

The salad won’t need to be tossed if you allow it to stand so the dressing can soak in.  This leaves your salad in layers and gives it an attractive look when placed on the table.  If you prefer, use a sweet salad dressing instead of the mayonnaise and sugar. I like the Wishbone Raspberry Walnut with this, or one of the Ken’s Dressings with Pecan in it.  Just whisk the vinegar into the salad dressing until well combined.
