Spinach & noodle salad

Sunday nights are for relaxing. I love cooking, but not on Sundays. So I picked one of our favorite quick & easy meals for dinner tonight, ramen noodle & spinach salad. The recipe is ridiculously easy & delicious to boot. I found the recipe from The Spark People Recipes app; I tweaked it just a bit by cooking the noodles rather than toasting them.

1 pkg. fresh baby spinach (10 oz)
4 green onions, chopped
1 pkg oriental ramen noodles
2 tblsp olive oil
2 tblsp brown sugar
2 tblsp rice wine vinegar
2 tbslp soy sauce
2 tblsp toasted sesame seeds
2 oz sliced almonds

Crunch up the ramen noodles & cook in microwave. Drain noodles.

Mix spinach with chopped green onions, noodles, sesame seeds, & almonds.

Dressing: Mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, and remaining olive oil together and toss with the salad.

And that's it. Easy peasy :)
