Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped (other fresh herbs such as basil can be used)
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 5 cups baby spinach
  • ¼ cup yellow or red bell peppers, chopped into bite sized pieces.

  • 3 tbsp pumpkin seeds, toasted

Instructions

  1. Make the vinaigrette: add the ingredients, garlic clove through the mustard, to a small bowl.
  2. Whisk the vinaigrette ingredients together so they are well combined. Add salt and pepper to taste, and whisk again. Set the vinaigrette aside.
  3. Place the spinach in a large salad bowl.
  4. Add the peppers, tomatoes and feta cheese to the spinach.
