Cook Time: 0 min
Difficulty:     Easy
Servings: 8

  > Salad
10 oz  fresh baby spinach
1 each  red onion
1 cup  fresh sliced strawberries

  > Dressing
2 tbsp  sugar free red raspberry jam
2 tbsp  light mayonnaise
1 tbsp  olive oil
1 tsp  Mustard, deli
2 tbsp  cold water
2 each  medium garlic cloves
2 tsp  sweetener (sugar substitute)
1 pinch  salt and pepper
1/8 cup  slivered almonds

Wash spinach carefully to remove sandy residue. Trim any tough ends.

Dry thoroughly.(A salad spinner with expedite this process.) If any water is left on the leaves, the salad will wilt very quickly. Place dry spinach in a bowl. Add onion and strawberries.

Mix the dressing ingredients together in a glass or dressing jar. (If using jam, melt in microwave until soft and add the rest of the ingredients.) Shake well.

Pour dressing on salad. Toss and garnish with almonds.
