Here is a healthy, low fat recipe the entire family will enjoy! Spinach is nutritious and full of iron, magnesium and fiber. If your children have a hard time eating spinach, you can substitute romaine lettuce. The salad dressing is slightly hot (because of the curry powder) which creates a wonderful taste combination of spicy and sweet. This recipe is quick to prepare and is best served with BBQ chicken or fish on the side for supper. This recipe is compliments of Positive Change Nutrition, www.rachellewood.ca.
