Cashews
Fresh spinach leaves
Chopped lettuce
Diced mozzarella cheese
Thinly chopped red onion

Step-by-Step Method
01
Prep the greens
Wash and dry the spinach and lettuce well. Add them to a large bowl, then mix in the mozzarella and red onion.
02
Add cashews (and bacon, if using)
If you’d like, toast the cashews in a dry pan for 1–2 minutes to wake up the flavor. Chop the bacon and add it with the cashews.
03
Whisk the poppy seed dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, red wine vinegar, and dry mustard. Once the sugar mostly dissolves, stir in the poppy seeds.
04
Toss and serve
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently so the greens stay crisp. Serve right away.
