Orange Spinach Salad

Apart from being an excellent, healthy vegetable, I love spinach’s raw taste in salads. It goes very well with citrus, but also with apples and cheese (mozzarella, parmesan …). Orange segments, red onion, pine nuts, and plenty of salad make this a healthy, vitamin-rich recipe.
