Banana Chip Walnut Salad, originally uploaded by speedvegan.

A few months ago, I made a Banana Nut Salad. I wanted something like it this week, but my left knee was still the size of a cantaloupe. Standing around for a long time would only aggravate it, so I cheated a little bit. I was so happy with the results that I decided to blog my creation.

generous amount of baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup banana chips
1/2 cup walnuts

Dressing:
1 tbsp flax seed oil
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp strawberry or raspberry preserves
1 tsp Dijon mustard
salt and pepper (to taste)

1. To make dressing, whisk ingredients until smooth.

2. Combine spinach, banana chips and walnuts.

3. Transfer to serving plate and pour dressing over salad.

We had this salad at least 3 times this week and it was yummy every time !
