Instructions
- If the spinach is not already washed and dried, rinse it and spin or pat dry; place 8 cups fresh spinach leaves in a large bowl big enough to toss the salad.
- Wash the mushrooms, pat them dry, and thickly slice 8 oz. of mushrooms.
- Thinly slice green onion until you have 1/4 cup.
- Crumble and measure 1/3 cup Feta Cheese; set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 T balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp. Spike Seasoning to make the dressing.
- Heat 1 T extra virgin olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the hot pan and cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are nicely browned and any released liquid has evaporated.
- Add the sliced green onions to the pan and cook 1–2 minutes, until they are just starting to soften.
- Pour the dressing into the pan with the mushrooms and green onions, heat just until it barely comes to a simmer, then remove from heat and immediately pour the mushroom/onion mixture and dressing over the spinach.
- Toss the spinach, mushrooms, onions, and dressing to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl if desired, crumble the measured 1/3 cup Feta Cheese over the salad, and serve.
