Spinach Chicken Salad

I wanted to do something somewhat healthy for an alternative to the holiday dinner so I opted for salad.

Spinach Chicken Salad
Chicken breasts, grilled
Spinach (from local farmers market)
Green lettuce mixture (from local farmers market)
Walnuts
Feta Cheese, crumbled (from local farmers market)
Dried Cranberries
Bacon, cooked and chopped into bite sized pieces
Hard cooked eggs, 1 per salad quartered (from local farmers market)
Poppy Seed Dressing

Arrange items on a plate or bowl.  Add dressing and serve.


Poppy Seed Dressing
1/2 cup honey (from local farmers market)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh onion puree (I used the fine part of the cheese grater for this)
1 cup olive oil
1-1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds
Put all ingredients into a small jar and shake until well mixed.
