How to Make Spinach Salad With Festive Yumminess
- In a large trifle bowl, layer 5 oz (140g) baby spinach, 1 cup (140g) fresh or frozen sweet corn kernels, ½ cup (80g) frozen peas, and ½ cup (70g) dried cranberries.
- In a blender, combine ½ cup (120ml) mayonnaise, ¼ cup (60ml) plain yogurt, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard, ¼ teaspoon ground ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more maple syrup for sweetness, or ginger and pepper for spice.
- In a small, hot pan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add ½ cup (60g) pecan halves and ¼ cup (30g) wasabi peas. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the nuts are fragrant and slightly toasted. Set aside to cool.
- Just before serving, gently toss the salad with the creamy dressing. Top generously with the candied pecans and wasabi peas. Serve immediately and enjoy!
