Simple Spinach Salad

Spinach Salad

Baby spinach is light in taste and deliciously fresh making the best salad base. Toasted walnuts add another layer of flavor and of crunch. The parmesan cheese gives it that extra sophisticated touch. Just add a really nice olive oil, a dash of lemon juice, salt, and fresh ground pepper and you’re good to go. This is simply the best spinach salad.

Tip: if you’re out of walnuts substitute for almonds or pecans (whatever you have at hand).

Healthy yet no doubt tasty! It looks amazing. Spinach is usually a stable of our salads because it’s so easy to keep and packed full of Iron.
