Spinach Strawberry Salad

1 bag baby spinach
Sliced strawberries (1 quart)
Sliced almonds (toasted)

In blender:

¼ cup strawberry preserves
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup cider vinegar
½ cup oil
¼ teaspoon minced onion
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds


Shake and pour dressing over salad just before serving.

House Dressing

1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Whisk all ingredients in a large bowl or mix with a stick blender. Store in a bottle you can shake since it will separate after it sits for a while. This dressing will keep well in an airtight container for several weeks without refrigeration.
