If you’re going to a potluck, perhaps a party, or a family gathering and you need to take along a salad. Well, this is the one! Simply prepare everything, keep the dressing mixture in a separate tub. When you arrive at your party, give the dressing a good shake and pour over the salad when you’re ready to serve. It’s as easy as that!

Of course, we know spinach has high nutrient properties. This recipe does use sugar, however, if you wanted to be super healthy, feel free to swap the sugar for honey or something else.
