LOW FAT SPINACH SALAD

Ingredients:

6oz bag of pre-washed baby spinach
¼ cup cold-pressed olive oil
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Method:

Empty the spinach into a large salad bowl. Put the olive oil, balsamic vinegar and water together in a liquid measuring cup. Whisk the ingredients together then pour over spinach. Toss thoroughly so the spinach is well coated with the dressing. Add sesame seeds and toss again so the seeds are distributed through the salad.

Serves 4-6

Additional Notes:

Buying the pre-washed spinach is a real time saver with this recipe. Usually, spinach needs to be washed several times to eliminate all the sand in it.

Water is the magical ingredient in the salad dressing that allows the vinegar and oil to blend with each other.

The toasted sesame seeds add extra goodness and flavor to the salad as well as making it visually appealing.
