Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes
1/2 medium onion, sliced thin
2 Tbsp white wine OR apple cider vinegar
1 cup hot water
5 oz baby spinach
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp honey
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt and cracked black pepper to taste
8 dried figs, sliced
2 Tbsp chopped walnuts
Slice onion and let sit for at least 5 minutes to enhance its
health-promoting properties.
Marinate sliced onion in 2 TBS white wine or apple cider vinegar
and hot water for 10 minutes while preparing rest of ingredients.
Rinse and dry baby spinach. If you have a salad spinner that is
best, otherwise, dry with paper towels. This will avoid dressing
getting diluted.
