Simple Spinach Salad

Ease: 5/5     Kid-friendliness: 3/5     Taste: 3.5/5     Time: 5/5



Prep: 7 minutes
Cook time: 1 minute

This is a super fast, super easy, but super tasty spinach salad. Makes a terrific side and I just love the dressing!

What you'll need:

  • 12 oz or 350 g pre-washed baby spinach
  • 2 oranges
  • 1/4 C lowest fat mayonnaise
  • 1/4 C french vanilla yogurt (low fat)
  • 1/4 tsp poppy seeds
  • 1/4 tsp milk (optional)
  • handful of croutons or cranberries (optional)
Rinse spinach leaves under cold water in salad spinner and spin dry. Place in salad bowl. Slice orange wedges and toss into greens. Set aside in fridge.

Combine mayonnaise, yogurt, and poppy seeds in a small bowl in that order. Whisk together (you may want to whisk in a bit of milk if you like your dressing a bit runny). 

Toss a handful of your choice of croutons or cranberries into the spinach, drizzle with the dressing and toss again. Serve! Fresh and Yummy!
