Strawberry Lettuce Salad with Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing Recipe
Directions
  • Tear lettuce into bite size pieces and combine it with the spinach.
  • Toss in almonds, strawberries, and blueberries; set aside.
DRESSING:
  • Mix sugar, lemon juice, onion, mustard and salt in blender.
  • Add oil slowly and blend until thick and smooth. Add poppy seeds and process a few seconds to mix.
  • Refrigerate the dressing until you are ready to serve the salad. When ready to serve, drizzle dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat evenly.
Note: Do not add all the dressing at once. Gradually add to the salad until it is coated as desired. The leftover dressing can be refrigerated for several days and used as a dressing for a regular toss salad.
