Ingredients
Dressing- 1 tsp. honey
- 1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 Tbsp. canola oil
- 3 Tbsp. raw pumpkin seeds
- 1 poblano chile pepper
- 6 cups baby spinach
- 3 Tbsp. finely crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
- 1/2 cup baked corn chips
Instructions
- For dressing, in small bowl, whisk honey, lime juice, vinegar and salt until salt dissolves. Whisk in oil. Set dressing aside for up to 1 hour, remixing it before using.
- Set small, heavy skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add pumpkin seeds to dry pan. Slip your hand into oven mitt, and lift pan, moving it in circular motion over heat to keep seeds moving so they do not burn. When many seeds are golden and some have popped, about 2 minutes, spread them on dinner plate to cool.
- Using tongs, hold pepper over open flame and turn it until skin is charred all over, about 4 minutes. May also char pepper under broiler or over outdoor grill. When pepper is cool enough to handle, with your fingers, slip off charred skin. Halve pepper lengthwise, and use small knife to remove seeds and ribs. Chop half the pepper; set other half aside for another use.
- In large salad bowl, place spinach. Add chopped poblano. Just before serving, pour on dressing and toss to coat spinach and pepper. Sprinkle on toasted pumpkin seeds and feta. A few at a time, lightly crush corn chips over salad. Toss, and divide salad among 4 individual salad bowls.
