Spa Salad with Almond Vinaigrette

Spa Salad with Almond Vinaigrette

Ingredients

Spa Salad

  • 10 oz. baby spinach leaves, torn into bite-size pieces
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup strawberries, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • Almond Vinaigrette
  • Strawberries and almonds for garnish

Almond Vinaigrette

Directions

Spa Salad

Toss the spinach, onion, strawberries and almonds gently in a large bowl. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss to combine. Garnish with additional strawberries and almonds.

Almond Vinaigrette

Whisk the Dijon mustard, syrup, Vanilla Extract, Almond Extract, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add the canola oil in a fine stream, whisking constantly until incorporated. This will emulsify your salad dressing and it will not separate. Add the vinegar slowly, whisking constantly.

Makes 3/4 cup

Notes:

Emulsified liquids are generally unmixable and whisking them together gradually will force them to combine.
