 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
   12      Oz            Spinach -- Young Leaves
                         Garlic Dressing:
    1      Lg            Clove Garlic -- Peel, Crush,
                          -- Fine Chop, Abt 1 Tsp
    2      Tsp           Dijon Mustard
    2      Tsp           Red Wine Vinegar
      1/8  Tsp           Salt
      1/4  Tsp           Black Pepper
      1/2  Tsp           Extra Virgin Olive Oil -- *Note
 
 *NOTE:  Original recipe used 2 T oil.  Other oils you can use are canola or
 peanut.
 
 Remove and discard the stems and any damaged or wilted areas from the
 spinach leaves, and break them into 2" pieces.  (You should have abt 8
 loose cups)  Wash the spinach in a basin of cool water, then lift it from
 the water, drain, and dry thoroughly, preferably in a salad spinner, so no
 water remains to dilute the dressing.
 
 Place all the dressing ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the
 greens, and whisk briefly to mix but not emulsify.
 
 Add the greens, and toss well.  Serve immediately, since the spinach will
 tend to wilt quickly after it is mixed with the dressing.
 
 Total Time:  10 min
 Yield: 4 servings
 
 This was really very good even without the extra oil.  It does have quite a
 bite to it so taste the dressing and adjust before you add the spinach.
