Spinach Salad with Poppyseed Dressing

My mom introduced me to this salad and dressing around Christmas time. She had a party for her friends and made it for them and it was a big hit. Then she made it to go with our Christmas dinner and still a big hit. Now I’ve made it twice and it’s been a consistent big hit. When something is a bit hit and I love it, I gotta share it with you!

The salad is simple and you can really add anything you want to it, these are the things I added that made it yummy. The salad dressing is the star in my eyes though. That I wouldn’t mess with, because it’s good. Really good.
