Salad Base

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spinach

    Wash the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.

  2. 2

    Combine Salad Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, combine the washed spinach leaves, diced mango, chopped walnuts, dried cranberries, and grated parmigiana cheese. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.

  3. 3

    Add Croutons

    Sprinkle the croutons over the top of the salad just before serving to maintain their crunch.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined and emulsified.

  2. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Just before serving, drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients with the dressing.
