Spinach Salad with Orange Sesame Dressing
- 1 bunch fresh spinach (6 cups)
- 1 red or yellow bell pepper, cut into strips

Trim off the spinach stems and carefully wash the leaves. Dry, then tear any large leaves into bite-size pieces. Place in a salad bowl along with the pepper, onion, and orange slices. Toast the sesame seeds in a 400° F oven for 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender and grind into a powder. Add the vinegar, orange juice concentrate, and water and blend to mix. Pour over the salad and toss just before serving. |
