Tangy homemade raspberry vinaigrette dressing gives a
summery flavor—and a pretty pink-red tint—to this
salad that’s definitely special enough to serve to company.

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh raspberries
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup canola oil
• 2 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, optional
• 1 package (6 ounces) fresh baby spinach
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
• 1/2 to 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation

1. In a saucepan, combine raspberries and sugar; bring to a
boil over medium heat, Cook for 1 minute. Strain and
discard pulp.
