EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Research shows that spinach and other leafy green vegetables are high in antioxidants. Spinach is an excellent source of the antioxidant lutein, vitamin C and folic acid—all beneficial nutrients for your health.

No oregano? Basil can be used for a different but pleasing flavor.

My boyfriend, who is a food enthusiast with a mother who is a five-star chef, said this is his favorite salad, hands down. The dressing is so simple and delicious! We actually added red peppers to the tomatoes and yellow peppers, which we really liked. Very good and highly recommended.
