Ingredients:
Dressing:
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon maple syrup
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salad:
1 bunch spinach, washed well, dried, stems removed
1/3 cup sweet glazed nuts
1/4 small red onion, sliced in thin half or quarter moons
Place all dressing ingredients except oil in a large salad bowl and stir to mix. Add oil a little at a time, whisking it into the other ingredients so that it incorporates nicely.
Wash spinach by placing leaves in a sink full of cold water. Drain and repeat. Spin or pat dry. Tear spinach into bite-size pieces. Place in a large salad bowl. Add glazed nuts and red onion to spinach. If you don't like the sharpness of raw red onion, soak slices in cold, salted water for 5 minutes before adding.
Dress salad just before serving.
