Raspberry Jazz Spinach Salad Recipes

SPINACH RASPBERRY SALAD WITH BALSAMIC REDUCTION

Steps:

• Place the balsamic vinegar in a small pot. Bring to a simmer for 5 to 10 minutes to reduce it. Let cool.
• Mix together the lemon juice, oil and honey with a pinch of pepper. Set aside.
• Place the spinach in a large serving bowl, pour over the lemon and honey dressing and toss the leaves.
• Place the raspberries and slivered almonds on top of the spinach and top with shaved parmesan.
• Use a spoon to drizzle over the balsamic reduction and finish with a little freshly grated black pepper.

SPINACH SALAD WITH RASPBERRY DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, mustard, vinegar, pepper, garlic salt, dried basil, sugar, and salt until dressing is well combined.
• In another large bowl, combine the spinach, mushrooms, strawberries, and red onion. Add the dressing and toss well. Sprinkle with the Candied Almonds.
• In a saute pan over medium heat, add the sugar and heat until it melts, about 6 minutes. Add the slivered almonds and cook until the sugar has caramelized, stirring constantly. Remove from the pan to a parchment lined sheet pan and cool. Once it has cooled, break into small pieces and set aside.

RASPBERRY AND SPINACH SALAD

Steps:

• Mix the oil into the poppyseeds, dijon and honey.
