Recipe Review -- Super Spinach Salad

1 tablespoon butter

3/4 cup pine nuts, blanched and slivered (these are expensive so you can used almonds if you prefer)

1 pound spinach, rinsed and torn into bite-size pieces

1 cup craisins

2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

1 tablespoon poppy seeds

1/4 cup sugar

2 teaspoons minced onion

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/4 cup white wine vinegar

1/4 cup cider vinegar

1/2 cup vegetable oil

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook and stir nuts in butter until lightly toasted. Remove from heat, and let cool.

In a large bowl, combine the spinach with the toasted almonds and craisins.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the sesame seeds, poppy seeds, sugar, onion, paprika, white wine vinegar, cider vinegar, and vegetable oil. Toss with spinach just before serving.
