Spinach and Pecan Salad recipe – 159 calories

Ingredients:
150 g baby spinach leaves
4 medium oranges
150 g snow peas, trimmed and halved
1/4 cup toasted pecans, coarsely chopped

For the citrus dressing
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Preparation:
1. In a large bowl, combine the baby spinach leaves, pecans and snow peas.
2. Segment the peeled oranges over the salad (so that none of the orange juice is lost), adding the orange segments to the bowl.
3. Place all the citrus dressing ingredients in a screw-top jar, shake well, then pour over the salad and gently toss to combine.
