Spinach Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

This salad is one of our favorites!

1/2 cup chopped pecans
3 TBS sugar

Stir in skillet until sugar melts and nuts are well coated.  Cool

1 8 oz package fresh baby spinach
1 lb. strawberries, sliced

Mix with cooled nuts and add dressing right before serving.

Dressing
 This makes a huge batch of dressing, we usually don't use it all, we like to save it for other salads.

1 1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup white vinegar
2 cups olive oil
2 tsp dry mustard
2 tsp salt
3 TBS poppy seeds

Blend together in a blender and pour over salad.
