Dried Cranberries we had these in the cupboard (were given them awhile ago)

Italian salad dressing we had this in the cupboard (I have bought this item at Wegmans in the past on sale, 2 for $3---I usually don't but salad dressings unless they are on sale)
Pecans we had these in cupboard

Recipe
1. Preheat oven to 350. To be used for roasting your pecans
2. Rinse carefully the spinach
3. Cut onion into small very small pieces (tip here, if you get your onion cold before cutting it, it wouldn't make you cry)
4. Place the pecans in a pan, single layer and place into oven. watch these so they don't burn
5. Chop up the pecans and put on side to be used later
6. Mix all ingredients.
7. Just before serving you can put the salad dressing on the salad. If you put it on before hand it could make the salad soggy.
