How to Make Mediterranean Spinach Salad

  1. In a large zip-top bag, combine 5 ounces of fresh spinach with 2 tablespoons of Kalamata olive juice. Gently shake to coat the spinach.
  2. Remove excess olive juice from the bag, leaving the spinach slightly moist. Transfer the spinach to a medium-sized salad bowl.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Crumble 1/4 cup of feta cheese and add it to the spinach.
  5. Pour the olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette over the spinach and feta. Toss gently to combine.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy! Optional: Add 1/4 cup of Kalamata olives, halved, for extra Mediterranean flair.
