Popeye the Sailor Man knew what he was talking about, eating all that spinach. It is good for you, packed with vitamins and minerals.

But Popeye didn't know the best way to eat spinach. From a can?!?! Blech! Raw spinach has much more flavor and texture than any canned product, and doesn't get all mushy with dressing.
My favorite spinach salad is very basic. Mix together and serve immediately the following ingredients:
1/4 pound of fresh spinach, torn
1 can of mandarin oranges, drained
1/4 cup almond slivers, lightly roasted
Raspberry vinaigrette
We tried two kinds of raspberry vinaigrette today, both available locally from Ray's. The Fat Free dressing had much more raspberry flavor to it, definitely recommend that one. Yes, for once the healthier option is the yummier option!
