Good for You!

So my neighbor and I have decided to start a little garden in front of our house we are very excited; I even started weeding the area to get it ready. This inspired me to post a healthy recipe. I made a salad the other night that was very very good!

Grilled Chicken and Spinach with Orange dressing:

1 (10 oz.) pkg. of pre-washed fresh spinach
1/2 c. orange juice
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
3 Tbsp. Vinegar
1 tsp. grated orange peel
1/8 tsp. salt
2 medium shallots
4 boneless chicken breast halves, pounded
1/4 tsp. black and red pepper
6 slices of orange, halved
1 1/2 c. strawberries


Chicken:
Heat grill
Sprinkle one side with pepper
Put pepper side down on grill
Cook 5 min.
Lightly sprinkle with pepper again
Slice chicken crosswise
Place on spinach and add strawberries

Dressing:
Combine orange juice, brown sugar, vinegar, orange peel, salt, and shallots
Mix well in a sauce pan and bring to a boil
Pour over spinach immediately

This is perfect as a summer dinner! It is very easy, yummy, and healthy...ENJOY!!
