Ingredients

  • 2 bunches fresh spinach, or 284-g bag spinach

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tbsp sesame oil, preferably dark

  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper

  • 1/4 cup shredded fresh basil

  • 5 to 8 large portobello mushrooms

  • 1 small red or Spanish onion, sliced

  • 6 green onions, sliced

Instructions

  • Wash and dry spinach leaves and place in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk 1 tbsp (15 mL) of olive oil with sesame oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Stir in basil.

  • Slice mushrooms at least 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) thick. Slices should measure about 5 cups (1.25 L). Heat 2 tbsp (30 mL) of olive oil in a large wide frying pan set over medium-high heat. When very hot, add mushrooms and red onion. Stir-fry just until onion has started to soften and mushrooms are beginning to lose their liquid, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

  • Whisk dressing and while stirring mushrooms, gradually add dressing. Toss with spinach and green onions.
