THIS strawberry spinach salad is a great way to get kids to eat the vegetable. Someone brought this salad to a potluck dinner, and I ensured I got the recipe.
Since then, I have prepared the salad many times, and I have been asked for the recipe every time I take it somewhere.

Half cup white sugar;
Half cup olive oil;
Quarter cup distilled white vinegar;

One quart strawberries — cleaned, hulled and sliced; 10 ounces fresh spinach — rinsed, dried and torn into bite-size pieces and quarter cup almonds, blanched and slivered.
