Being so cold, I thought I would make something that brings back the flavor of summer for a quick Sunday lunch. I love raspberries and walnuts and had some spinach to use up so I made this super-simple salad which is also very healthy. ( Twenty-two bennefits of eating walnuts). I always use a salad spinner after throughly cleaning any greens. It’s a must-have kitchen utensil. This salad took less  than 10 minutes to put together. Give it a try you will enjoy it!

Ingredients

12 oz. fresh green spinach

1/2 cup raspberries (approx. 15 berries)

1/4 cup walnuts, broken into pieces

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

Directions

Mix together all ingredients in a medium bowl. Add raspberry vinaigrette dressing. To make raspberry vinaigrette simply whisk together 1 tablespoon raspberry jam, 1/4 cup white vinegar, 1/3 cup olive oil. Add crushed black pepper and sea salt to taste (optional).
