There is nothing more refreshing than a delicious and nutritious salad. I crave salads. I typically enjoy for lunch and with dinner. However, eating the same salad everyday isn’t ideal, so I like to have options.
My spinach avocado bowl with orange dressing is a refreshing salad bursting with flavor. This salad will win over even the pickiest non-veggie eaters.
Top this salad with a cooked salmon filet or a cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast for a complete meal.
Spinach Avocado
Salad Bowl
10 ounces fresh spinach
1 large or 2 medium avocados, peeled and sliced
½ pound bacon, crisp-cooked, drained and crumbled
½ cup chopped peanuts
Orange Dressing
½ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons grated orange peel
¼ cup orange juice
1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
4 teaspoons sugar or honey
½ teaspoon dry mustard
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 large oranges
1 small red onion, sliced and separated into rings
In a screw top jar combine oil, orange and lemon peels, juice, vinegar, honey, salt and dry mustard. Cover and shake well. Peel oranges and remove the white membrane. Slice crosswise and cut each slice into thirds.
In a bowl, combine orange slices and onion. Pour dressing over the oranges and onions, stir. Refrigerate covered until ready to use.
Wash spinach thoroughly and tear into bite-sized pieces. Place the spinach in a salad bowl. Arrange avocado slices, crumbled bacon and chopped peanuts over spinach. Pour the orange dressing over the salad and serve.
Enjoy!
