This is a wonderful new spinach salad I tried. It has a wonderful light lemony dressing. It's a wonderful addition to baked fish or chicken or a light lunch.
4 cups of spinach
3/4 cup uncooked orzo
1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon honey
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 cup shredded skinless, boneless baked chicken breast (I omitted this when I made the salad)
1/2 cup diced English cucumber
1/2 cup diced red pepper
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
Cook orzo according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water; drain and place in a large bowl. Meanwhile, combine lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil salt, garlic and honey; stir well with a whisk. Drizzle juice mixture over orzo and toss to coat. Add chicken, dill, red pepper, onion, cucumber and spinach and toss gently to combine. Sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese.
