Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 12 cups baby spinach
  • 2 red potatoes cut into a 1/4" dice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 red onion finely chopped
  • 1 cup green beans cut into 2" pieces
  • 1 pint grape tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • cup kalamata olives halved

For the Basil Vinaigrette

  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • ½ lemon juiced
  • 1 teaspoon creamy Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup fresh basil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Wash the spinach and put it in a large salad bowl.
  • In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring once or twice, until they begin to brown, about 5-8 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook another 4-5 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Add the onion and green beans to the pan; cook 5 minutes. Pour the warm vegetables onto the spinach. Let the salad sit while you make the vinaigrette (the spinach will wilt very slightly.)
  • Add half the tomatoes, feta, olives, and half of the basil vinaigrette. Toss to combine. Serve the salad with the remaining vinaigrette.

To make the basil vinaigrette:

  • Add the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and basil to a blender. Cover and blend on medium speed for about 5 seconds (just to break up the basil). With the blender running, drizzle in the olive oil. Blend until the dressing is smooth, 15-20 seconds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
