Humans have enjoyed spinach for thousands of years due to its high nutrient density and dietary versatility. Pairing oranges with spinach isn't just colorful, it also promotes absorption of nutrients. Spinach contains iron and calcium, but also oxalic acid, which limits your body's absorption of those minerals. Combining this tasty green-leafed vegetable with foods high in vitamin C, such as oranges and sweet peppers, enables your body to more easily absorb iron.
Instructions
1. Pour 1/4 cup of raspberry vinaigrette in the bottom of the salad bowl before adding any further ingredients. Having half the dressing on the bottom makes coating the salad easier while mixing.
2. Wash spinach and dry in a salad spinner. Pour spinach into salad bowl.
3. Add chopped oranges, peppers and mozzarella balls. Mix the salad with tongs until all the ingredients are integrated. Make sure the heavier items, like the oranges, don't all sink to the bottom.
4. Pour the remaining 1/4 cup of over salad and continue mixing with tongs. Add more vinaigrette If you prefer stronger flavoring, but be careful the dressing doesn't overpower the mild taste of the mozzarella.
