SUPER FOOD SPINACH SALAD WITH POMEGRANATE-GLAZED WALNUTS

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup juice with the sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small nonstick skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces slightly, about 5 minutes. Add the walnuts and continue to cook, stirring, until the nuts are coated and dark and the liquid evaporates in the skillet, about another 5 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet to cool. When cool, break apart with your hands.
• Meanwhile, soak the red onion in ice water for about 10 minutes; drain and pat dry. Place the baby spinach in a serving bowl and top with the onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and walnuts. In a bowl whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons juice with the vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and then whisk in the oil. Drizzle over the salad and toss just before serving.

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the triangular toasts with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toast the croutons in the oven. Crumble some of the blue cheese on top of each crouton. Melt the blue cheese on the toast points underneath the broiler.

• Top each serving with bacon bits, red onion, grated cheese and mushrooms, if desired. (You can combine it all in a large bowl if necessary. But the 'goodies' get distributed a lot better if you treat each serving separately.).
• Combine all dressing ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well to combine.
• Taste and adjust amount of sugar if needed.
• Pour a small amount of dressing over each individual salad, serving additional dressing on the side.
• Stir dressing well before each use, as the sugar tends to sink to the bottom.
