Rec: Blueberry Spinach Salad...Amanda, you might like this recipe, we really do.

We've had it twice this week. I'm not sure about the source of this, perhaps a Reiman publication. Edited to say it's from Taste of Home.

I like to sprinkle the blue cheese on the top.

Blueberry Spinach Salad

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) package fresh spinach, torn
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted

In a jar with tight-fitting lid, combine first five ingredients and shake well.
In a large salad bowl, toss the spinach, blue cheese, blueberries and pecans.
Add dressing and toss gently.
Serve immediately.

Yield 6-8 servings

Chicken Salad in Cantaloupe Bowls

We use left-over grilled chicken, diced, amended and seasoned, served in half a cantaloupe. Cool, tasty - nice contrasts - and easy. Plus, you get to throw half of the serving pieces into the compost!

 
Chopped up REAL tomatoes marinated in red wine & olive oil with minced onion & lots of

crumbled feta piled on garlic toast comes to mind, or Sunday lunch with fresh blackeyed peas, fresh southern style green beans, mashed potatos, fried chicken, sliced tomatos and my grandmother's blackberry cobler with vanilla ice cream.
