Spinach Salad with Poppyseed Dressing


For dinner tonight we did a build your own salad bar. I had everything sliced and diced and set out on the table so everyone could create their salad just the way they like it. It's also nice for the kids because they don't like the spinach but they will eat everything else. I served it with these yummy rolls.

Fresh Spinach
Chicken (I marinated the chicken in Italian dressing and then cooked it and cut it up in bite size pieces)
Strawberries, sliced
Mandarin Oranges
Apple, diced
Cashews
Feta cheese (optional)

Poppy Seed Dressing
1/4 c. rice vinegar
1/4 c. honey
1 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/2 c. strawberries
1/3 c. oil
3/4 tsp. poppy seeds

Combine the vinegar, honey, garlic, salt, pepper, and strawberries in a blender and blend till smooth. Add oil while blending. Stir in poppy seeds.
