Fresh Spinach Salad

So you know from previous posts that I am growing a wealth of spinach. The kids won't eat it outright but I am finding creative ways to incorporate it into their diets. I've added it to spaghetti and smoothies with much success. Recently, I came across this recipe for Spinach Chocolate Chip Muffins that I'm eager to try.

As for me, I like it fresh in a salad. I made this last night:


Here's the recipe:

3 handfuls of freshly chopped spinach
1 large tomato, diced
1/4 onion, dices
1 small jalapeno, cut as finely as possible
salt and pepper to taste
juice of 1 freshly squeezed lemon
chill and serve

I love the acidity of the lemon juice with the earthiness of the spinach.

Let me know what you think.
