Spinach Salad with Garlic Dressing


Title: Spinach Salad with Garlic Dressing
Categories: Salads/sala, Vegetables, Eat-lf mail
Yield: 4 Servings

12 oz Spinach, Young Leaves

------------------------------GARLIC DRESSING------------------------------
1 lg Clove Garlic, Peel, Crush,
-Fine Chop, Abt 1 Tsp
2 ts Dijon Mustard
2 ts Red Wine Vinegar
1/8 ts Salt
1/4 ts Black Pepper
1/2 ts Extra Virgin Olive Oil,
-*Note

*NOTE: Original recipe used 2 T oil. Other oils you can use are canola or
peanut.

Remove and discard the stems and any damaged or wilted areas from the
spinach leaves, and break them into 2" pieces. (You should have abt 8 loose
cups) Wash the spinach in a basin of cool water, then lift it from the
water, drain, and dry thoroughly, preferably in a salad spinner, so no
water remains to dilute the dressing.

Place all the dressing ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the
greens, and whisk briefly to mix but not emulsify.

Add the greens, and toss well. Serve immediately, since the spinach will
tend to wilt quickly after it is mixed with the dressing.

Total Time: 10 min Yield: 4 servings

This was really very good even without the extra oil. It does have quite a
bite to it so taste the dressing and adjust before you add the spinach.
