Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 cups torn washed fresh spinach leaves (from 10-ounce bag), stems removed
4 medium seedless oranges
Orange juice
1/3 cup honey
3 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
2 tablespoons canola or soybean oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 medium red onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

Steps:

  • Arrange spinach on serving platter or individual serving plates.
  • Peel off eight 2 1/2x2-inch strips of orange peel with vegetable peeler, being careful to remove only orange part. Cut strips lengthwise into thin slivers.
  • Cut remaining peel and white pith from oranges with sharp knife. Remove segments of orange by cutting between membranes, catching juice in small bowl; set orange segments aside. Squeeze membranes of oranges into bowl to remove all of juice; if necessary, add orange juice to make 1/2 cup. Beat in honey, vinegar, oil and salt with wire whisk.
  • Place onion slices in single layer on ungreased cookie sheet; brush with orange juice mixture. Broil 2 to 3 inches from heat 4 to 5 minutes or just until edges begin to darken.
  • Arrange orange segments on spinach. Separate onion slices into rings; scatter over oranges. Drizzle with remaining orange juice mixture; garnish with strips of orange peel.

I added some crumbled feta cheese to this salad and it was delicious! I also think it would be good with some grilled chicken or shrimp.

This salad is so refreshing and flavorful! The spinach is crisp and juicy, the oranges are sweet and tangy, and the red onions add a nice sharpness. I also love the dressing, which is light and tangy.
