Spinach Salad with Maple-Dijon Vinaigrette

We have a couple we go to, thought we'd try this one which now we have one more to go to for a change.  The only thing we noticed, like previous reviews is the onion is a little heavy.  My husband was okay with it enough to not change the recipe but I'll end up messing around with it to see if I can take it out of the dressing, or the salad, or just best to reduce the amount in each.  I want the other flavors to come through a little more and the onion a little less.

Absolutely loved this salad. Substuted apple cider vinegar and Fuji apples. Halved the recipe because that was all the spinach I had. Now I am wishing I had leftovers for my lunch tomorrow. Will definitely be making this again.

This was delicious! The dressing was out of this world and I think it will become a staple in my rotation. I served this to my husband and an out-of-town guest, and there wasn't a bit left.

This was really good. I would definitely make this again, but would make a couple of changes- first off, I would definitely decrease the amount of shallots used in the dressing. The onion flavor in the dressing wasn't overpowering, but the aftertaste was extreme. I would also decrease the maple syrup just a little bit, because I found it a bit too sweet- it overpowered the tanginess of the other other ingredients. All in all a really easy, quick, tasty salad :)

Overall excellent recipe. I used Dijon mustard so would have used less maple syrup or more mustard and a bit more salt; forgot the apples and added 2 hard boiled eggs! Adding this to the repertoire. Served with a roasted butternut squash, carrot and pumpkin curry soup.
