Dr. Norris Chumley’s Christmas Salad

Baby spinach leaves
Red and Green peppers, finely diced
Cranberries
Capers (optional, only if you want a twang)
Nuts (optional): slivered almonds, walnuts, or roasted chestnuts(!)
Dressing: raspberry vinaigrette, or citrus infused oil with rice vinegar

Combine the above ingredients in proportion to your taste and desires. Toss with the dressing. You might also consider some sliced fruit, such as pears, oranges — or keep it red and green with honeydew melon and strawberries.
