Ingredients:
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1-2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1/2 cup whole cashews
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup Caesar dressing
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tbsp peppercorns
  • 1/2 cup pitted and halved cherries

Directions:
  1. Wash and spin dry baby spinach. Chop celery into thin slices, across the stalks ("C" shapes). Mix spinach, celery and cashews together briefly.

  2. Crush or coarsely grind 1/2 tbsp of the peppercorns - this is where the soft green ones are best, although regular black can be used. Mix curry spice and crushed peppercorns with Caesar dressing, set aside until ready to serve.

  3. Just before serving, add croutons (if using) and dressing to greens and mix again. Place salad on serving plates. Top with cherries, grind a little more pepper over that and serve.
