Strawberry Fields Salad

Hard to call this "white trash" because the dressing is home made, but it is easy, and it is probably one of the best salads I have had in a long time, so totally worth it.

INGREDIENTS

2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon minced onion
10 ounces fresh spinach - rinsed, dried and torn into bite-size pieces
1 quart strawberries - cleaned, hulled and sliced
1/4 cup almonds, blanched and slivered

DIRECTIONS

1. In a blender, puree the sesame seeds, poppy seeds, sugar, olive oil, vinegar, paprika, Worcestershire sauce and onion. Cover, and chill for one hour.
2. In a large bowl, combine the spinach, strawberries and almonds. 
3. You can mix the dressing in with the salad and chill, but I prefer to serve it on the side.

VARIATIONS

Add chicken; add crumbled bacon; add feta or blue cheese; substitute almonds for walnuts or candied almonds; add chopped red onions
