Baby Spinach Salad

by Irene Lindvall


I had a main dish already planned tonight and wanted to try a new salad. I love a good salad and I liked the idea of having peeled carrots in the salad. I know it sounds simple, but I usually add matchstick carrots (pre cut) or cut up carrots into tiny rounds after peeling. This was quite simple because I just kept peeling after the initial peeling of the outer layer. I cut the carrot in half, but could probably have done it in thirds to make sure the peel weren't too long. I love the sweetness of the oranges and how it paired well with the rice vinegar, shallots and green onions. Delicious, simple, salad. 

Things I learned from this recipe:

I loved the addition of sesame seeds (something I always have around) and need to remember to do this for other salads.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Yes
