SPINACH SALAD WITH SWEET AND SOUR DRESSING

One of my favorite salads. Creamy sweet-tart dressing clings easily to spinach, oranges, and red onions. I use baby spinach. You can use canned mandarin oranges, but I like the fresh oranges. Very colorful, great for a special occasion or everyday healthy treat. Everyone loves it. From Sunset Recipe Annual 1988 Edition.

SWEET AND SOUR CRUNCHY SPINACH SALAD

This is a nice summer salad with a very unique blend of flavors and textures. I always serve the dressing on the side so that the salad doesn't get soggy, and you can prepare this hours ahead of time. Before serving, you may need to whisk the dressing to blend the vinegar and oil, or use a shaker. Yummy:)
