There is a certain spinach salad that I order every time I eat in a certain Italian restaurant. I eat it with such gusto that even though I order a large portion I nearly always contemplate ordering a second one. Possibly because the first hasn’t even touched the sides but one thing’s for sure, I love that salad.

I also love eating dishes at restaurants and then coming home and trying to make them for myself. This is what I have done with this salad. Although it should be said that even though I adore the restaurant version I felt that I could make a few improvements according to my own particular taste.

  • Slice and dry fry the goats cheese until it has melted in the middle but browned slightly on the outsides  - set aside to cool.
  • Grill the prosciutto for a few minutes on either side and break up into smaller pieces
  • Chop the avocado in to slices
  • Put the baby spinach leaves in a bowl and add the avocado & prosciutto – toss gently
  • Place the sliced goats cheese on top of the salad and drizzle the dressing all over

For the dressing, add all the ingredients to a mixer/blender and whiz until smooth

We will be updating my homepage with a ‘Baby Watch’ update as and when things occur so you can keep up with events. I expect things to happen fairly quickly when they do decide to kick off.
