SPINACH SALAD WITH WALNUTS



Spinach Salad with Walnuts image

Nutritious spinach gets a protein boost from walnuts and eggs.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 minced shallot
1/4 cup loosely packed chopped fresh tarragon (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
3/4 pound trimmed spinach
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted walnuts
4 quartered hard-cooked eggs
8 ounces thinly sliced mushrooms
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, shallot, and tarragon.
  • Add spinach, walnuts, hard-cooked eggs, and mushrooms. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Toss just before serving.

Tips

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad. Look for vibrant, deeply colored spinach and beets, and fresh, crisp walnuts.
  • Don't overcook the beets: They should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooked beets will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: This will add a rich, complex flavor to your salad. Avoid using a cheap, vinegary balsamic vinegar, as it will overpower the other flavors in the salad.
  • Let the salad rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. You can also make the salad ahead of time and let it rest for up to an hour before serving.

Conclusion

This spinach, beet, and walnut salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy these nutritious vegetables. It's perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it's also a great side dish for grilled chicken or fish. With its vibrant colors and fresh flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful salad, give this spinach, beet, and walnut salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
