Spinach and Red Cabbage Salad with Oranges and Almonds
- 4 to 6 ounces baby spinach
- 1 1/2 cups thinly shredded red cabbage
- 3 small seedless oranges, such as clementines, peeled and sectioned
- 1/2 medium cucumber, scrubbed, halved lengthwise, and thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds
- 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons white balsamic or white wine vinegar, or to taste
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Combine the spinach, cabbage, oranges, cucumber, and almonds in a serving bowl and toss together.
- Dress as desired with oil and vinegar, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Toss again and serve.
- This goes nicely with Asian-style dishes, and for use in those kinds of meals, consider replacing the olive oil and vinegar with Sesame-Ginger Salad Dressing (page 222) or its store-bought equivalent.
- You might also use a small head of radicchio in place of the cabbage.
