Sunday Dinners: Spinach Salad with Fruit

Today's comfort food recipe is brought to you by my mom, who adapted this simple and delicious for a myriad of family meal occasions over the years. At its most basic it's a simple and fresh salad recipe, perfect for healthy side salads at home or as a contribution to a potluck or BBQ. The broad range of optional toppings makes it incredibly versatile. 

Mom writes:

"The tastes and textures of a salad matter - this is a sweet dressing, so it's great with fruit. But you can make an ordinary salad really special by thinking about the colors you are combining, which is why the cheese crumbles make it special, or why you might choose colorful berries over kiwi."

I hope you'll enjoy this recipe as much as I always have!
