Ingredients
For the Salad Dressing:
Instructions
To prepare the salad dressing:
- Combine all salad dressing ingredients in a mason jar.
- Whisk well with a fork, until emulsified.
- Add more lime juice to taste.
To assemble:
- Arrange the salad in individual bowls for presentation purposes.
- Add spinach to each individual salad bowl.
- Chop up half of the nuts.
- Nestle the remaining salad ingredients on top of the spinach.
- Drizzle with the salad dressing.
- Alternatively, combine all the salad ingredients (except pecans) in a large serving bowl; add the dressing and toss to combine; top the salad with toasted pecan halves (some of them chopped).
Notes
If using raw pecans, toast in the pre-heated oven at 350°F for about 5 or 10 minutes until a little bit darker in color and crunchy; be careful not to burn the nuts.
You can also purchase roasted, flavored, or candied pecans; in this case, there is no need to toast.
