yummy Spinach and Strawberry Salad...

Sorry no pictures, every time we make this, I eat it all up!!! I forget to shoot a picture before. Sorry too many things to remember at meal times!!

Strawberries, we usually use 2 cartons FRESH only
Red onion, we usually use one, and slice thin
Spinach, ofcourse organic. NEVER eat non organic lettuces.... seriously your leafy greens suck up all the water and things around them... all greens need to be organic.

Slice strawberries, we like them sliced vertical {long ways} Slice onion and wash spinach.

Now for the best dressing ever!
4 T honey
2T oil, we use to use olive oil, but are now in love with grapeseed.
2T rice vinegar
3T balsamic vinegar
1t poppy seeds, Papa Bear dislikes poppy seeds, so we leave them out when he's home.
Mix, stir, whisk or shake!!
drizzle over salad when you are ready to eat, not early. Then toss.

this dressing doesn't seem like a lot, but it is. The last of our salad is dripping in it. So if you are making a smaller salad, maybe you should cut it all in half...or make extra for another salad another night! It's so good.
Not sure where I got this from, we have been eating this FOREVER!!!
Enjoy!

I figure to some degree sugar is sugar, and not good, even in it's natural state. I don't want to get into a "sugar fight" with anyone! So all I am going to say, is it's quite common knowledge that sugar isn't good for you. I am a sugar lover! Always have been, I'm sure. I have a very, very, very sweet tooth. Sugar was hard for me to give up. Which is why I am so thankful for so many natural sweeteners! The reason we stopped, was knowledge, we started studying sugar, and learning about it, and we had to stop. As for our family, we had to give it up all or nothing, we are a cold turkey kind of family!!! We have tried to give up sugar, oh I don't know around 100 times!!! This time it finally stuck. The more I read, the more I study the more I am so thankful for that decision. So how di

and that's why we don't eat sugar.....
