Story
|
Spinach salads don't always have to be all about the "hot bacon dressing" scene. This spinach salad is all fresh and fruity with a nice tangy poppy seed dressing that is fancy, colorful, and flavorful. You can easily serve this salad for a dressy special occasion or just around the poolside for your book club, friends, or family.
