I know a lot of you don't like spinach. Spinach is an acquired taste, and one that I have started LOVING ever since my palate enjoyed this salad for the first time.   Now I put spinach in everything I can possibly can from frittatas to smoothies to salads.  Now I have a turkey burger that calls for a generous portion of spinach.  The interesting thing is you don't taste the spinach at all but you still get the nutritional benefit of  consuming it.  I hope you all enjoy this recipe because it is fabulous.  My picky kids even cleaned their plates!
