Father's Day Celebration #1

Last night we had Becky and Big Shep over for dinner. Will grilled some steaks and I was in charge of the sides. We had roasted asparagus, twice baked potatoes, strawberry salad, and crescent rolls. It was soooo good, and we ended up being soooo full!

Strawberry and Spinach Salad

Ingredients:
2 bunches spinach, rinsed and torn into bite-size pieces (I used bagged w/ spring mix)
4 cups sliced strawberries
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup of crumbled feta or blue cheese
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds


If you don't have time to make the dressing, just pick up some raspberry vinaigrette...a great fill in.

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, toss together the spinach, pecans, feta and strawberries.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar, paprika, sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. Pour over the spinach and strawberries, and toss to coat.
