Spinach and Strawberry Salad

1 pkg. spinch (I prefer baby spinach)
strawberries (1 pint, hulled and sliced)


1/3 cup sugar
1/4 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp paprika
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tbsp. poppy seeds
3 slices red onion, chopped
sliced blanched almonds

Combine all but first two ingredients. Blend in blender.
Pour over spinach and strawberries just before serving.

Layered Salad

This is a layered salad that is like a trifle in appearance, but of course, it's healthy.
I list the ingredients from top to bottom, but, of course, do the reverse when you're making it.

Bacon bits (optional)
Dried cranberries
Blanched, sliced almonds
Layer of baby spinach
Concentric circles of creamy cucumber dressing, or a layer of Greek Feta dressing
Sliced radishes
Broccoli florets diced very small
3 hard boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
Shredded ice berg lettuce
Freshly shelled summer peas
1 carrot, finely shredded
1/2 cucumber, peeled, sliced and chopped
2 vine ripened tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 shredded romaine lettuce leaves
Sliced button mushrooms
