PIPM: Pretty in Pink Megan: Perfect Summer Salad

Perfect Summer Salad

I discovered a tasty summer treat this past weekend while staying at my friend Sara's house. No, it's not a dessert ... it's a salad! Sara has no idea where the recipe came from, but her Mom has mastered the homemade dressing and it is simply amazing! Seriously, this salad beats any summer salad I've had at a restaurant or Panera, hands down!

First, you will need to put together the salad. You will need:
Spinach
Strawberries
Blueberries
Grapes
Praline Pecans
Crumbled Goat cheese

Put the spinach in a large bowl. Add fruits and top with pecans and goat cheese. Mix together and put in fridge until dressing is made.

Next comes the homemade dressing ... aka liquid candy ... this dressing is AMAZING.
You will need:
Vegetable Oil
White vinegar
Salt
Sugar
1 Medium Vidallia Sweet Onion
Worchshire sauce

Pour 1 CUP Vegetable Oil in dressing vile. Add 1/3 cup white vinegar. Add 1 medium sweet onion GRATED (i used half the onion instead). Add 3/4 cup sugar. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon worchshire sauce. MIX together with stirring stick.

Voila! It's that easy. Who knew making homemade dressing was so simple? Seriously, this salad is so good, you have to try it!
