Spinach Fruit & Avocado Salad

Submitted by French Lavender

"A tasty salad that can be easily changed to suit your own tastes. Don't like poppy seeds...try slivered almonds or sunflower seeds. Add more or less onion to taste, or try sliced red onion on top. Want to make a meal of it, add grilled chicken!"

This was a nice dinner salad. I left out the banana and used the suggested slices of purple onion. The dressing is sweet, but matches well with the spinach & fruit. Thank you for sharing your recipe! Reviewed for Pick A Chef Spring 2007
