    Very good - I did enjoy the texture and flavor combinations of this salad. I also tried green leaf lettuce in place of the spinach and it works well too. I have also rated the Ginger Sesame Salmon recipe linked to this.
    I've cooked/tasted this recipe!

          Well, I couldn't find this link yesterday so as soon as I asked for help finding it, there it was. I guess my eyes must have been tired yesterday. So John, disregard my question, I found it.

            My fault...I got tired and went to bed before posting the spinach salad. Good catch Lorrie!
