Spinach and Orange Salad with Black Olives

There’s alchemy between oranges and black olive that is delightful.

I like to make this salad with dishes I associate with Spain such as the Roasted Cod with Red Bell Pepper and Tomato Sauce or Seafood Paella with Edamame.

Toss salad with CMF Basic Salad Dressing

Variations:

• Instead of spinach, use mixed greens or baby kale
• Instead of green onion, use 1/4 finely sliced red onion
• Try this salad without the greens, slicing the onion in rounds, red onion in rounds and slivers of black olive sprinkled over them
