  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Combine spinach, greens, and peas in salad bowl. In small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, thyme, salt and pepper and whisk to blend. Just before serving, pour dressing over salad and toss gently to coat. Serves 4-6
