Strawberry Spinach Salad


It's strawberry season here!
Here's a delicious salad we had last week.
You can find spinach at Cabbage Creek's stand (Amelia Is. Farmer's Market)
&
strawberries at King's Kountry (Amelia & RAM)

2 bunches fresh spinach (whatever you have)
1 pt strawberries
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tbsp sesame seed
1 Tbsp poppy seed
1-1/2 tsp chopped onion
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 t onion salt
1/2 cup oil
1/4 cup vinegar

Wash & dry spinach & put in large salad bowl.  Slice berries & add to spinach.  Mix all ingredients for dressing in blender until thickened.  Drizzle over spinach & berries.

Okay: here's all my adaptations!  I did not use either sesame seeds or poppy seeds.  Instead of putting chopped onion in the dressing, I cut up red onion & put on salad.  I probably used more like 3 Tbsps or so sugar -- just to taste.  But, we aren't big sugar people.
