Spinach, Mushroom, and Tomato Salad

A quick salad with fresh, organic spinach, mushrooms suateed in garlic, and tomato, dressed in red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and more garlic. Garnished with my new favorite ingredient - chives! My aversion to eating tomatoes raw is slowly and surely fading away!

Fresh and Foodie, we dont get kale locally or even in shopps having imported stuff. It looks so pretty and is supposed to be better than spinach, nutritionally.

Great idea to fry mushrooms, I think like this they taste better :)
