Strawberry-Spinach Salad with Champagne Dressing - 11g Carbs, 3g Fiber, 6g Sugar

From: The American Heart Association Quick & Easy Cookbook,
2001 by the American Heart Association.

Serve this vibrantly colored dish with dinner on a very special occasion.

Serves: 4
Serving Size: 1 1/4 cups

3 Tbsp brut champagne, champagne vinegar OR white wine vinegar
1 Tbsp strawberry spreadable fruit or reduced-sugar preserves
1 tsp canola or corn oil
5 cups rinsed and trimmed fresh spinach
2 cups halved fresh strawberries, hulled
1/4 cup sliced unsalted, dry-roasted almonds

In a small jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine champagne, strawberry
spreadable fruit, and oil. Cover and shake until ingredients are well
combined. Place in the refrigerator until serving time.

Tear spinach into bite-size pieces. Place in a large salad bowl and
add strawberries. Shake dressing, pour over spinach mixture, and toss
to coat. Sprinkle with almonds.

Cook's Tip - -
If you have the time to toast the sliced almonds, place them on
a baking sheet in a single layer and bake in a preheated
350 degrees F oven for 5 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned,
stirring once. This will give them an even nuttier taste and
more crunch.
