Best Vegetarian Spinach Salad
March 12, 2010
I’m on a mission to rebuild my blood after my miscarriage last week, and that includes lots of leafy iron-filled greens. I had a salad similar to this when we visited Tofino, BC last summer for our 1st anniversary and I recreated it with my own twist. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Ingredients:
Baby Spinach
Thin slices of red onion
Crumbled feta cheese
Simply Natural Organic Goddess Salad Dressing (or homemade tahini dressing)
Roasted pumpkin seeds
Pickled beets, bite size
The amounts you use will vary depending on the size of the salad and your taste. Add all ingredients to a bowl and toss lightly with dressing. Enjoy!




Can you make it without the pickled beets? And where do you get roasted pumpkin seeds? Can I substitute something like almonds? The red onion, feta cheese and salad dressing sounds yummy!
I might have to try my own variation of this, I need to eat lots of leafy greens!
I buy my roasted pumpkin seeds in the bulk section of the grocery store or health food store.
The original recipe had candied pecans in it, but my son is allergic to all nuts, so I substituted the pumpkin seeds, which are SO good… Almonds would be yummy too, I bet…
Let me know what you end up with. The possibilities are endless!
