Spinach and Clementine Salad With Dried Tart Cherries

"From www.aicr.com. Clementines can be both expensive and difficult to find as they are only available November through March. Substitute tangerines-honey tangerines being particulatiry good, if you cannot find them. Here is what I found online about the fruit: "Clementines are the tiniest of the mandarins. Imported from Spain, Morocco, and other parts of North Africa, clementines are a cross between a sweet orange and a Chinese mandarin. They are small, very sweet, and usually seedless. Most people think of clementines as small tangerines, but they're a different variety entirely, with a distinctive taste".(SOURCE:www.producepete.com/shows/clementines.html"

  1. This is a very nice salad. The combination of flavors is great. I used only 2 stalks of celery and that was good for us. The dressing is really good! Made for the Bargain Basement tag game.
