I don't know about you, but spinach is a staple vegetable in our house. It is perfect for smoothies, salads, pasta dishes or munching on raw. If you are not already eating spinach regularly, here are some great reasons why you should add it to your diet. I have also included a super yummy spinach salad recipe below. This salad is great for big groups and sure to be a crowd pleaser!
Cucumber, Mango, Spinach Salad [Serves 10-12]
This recipe is a favorite for salad and comes from the Cancer Project. This is best
eaten soon after it’s made and doesn’t keep well overnight, so don’t overdue the amount!
8 oz or Bunch of Fresh Spinach
1 Mango, peeled and cut into bite-size pieces
1 large Cucumber, peeled and sliced
6 Green Onions, thinly sliced
½ Cup Fresh Basil, thinly sliced
3 Tbs Lime Juice
¼ Cup Seasoned Rice Vinegar
¼ Tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper (or to taste)
Wash and drain spinach, tear into bite-size pieces, if necessary, and put into a large serving bowl.
Toss Mango, Cucumber, Green Onions, and Basil in a medium bowl. Add Lime Juice and
Vinegar and stir to mix. Arrange Mango mixture on Spinach and sprinkle with Black Pepper.
To enjoy the fresh flavors in this salad, eat immediately after tossing
