Spinach Salad

I don't eat spinach salads that often because of the continuing difficulty I have with kidney stones, and dark leafy vegetables need to be limited with stones. I do every once in a while have this salad, though, because it's so colorful and fresh that it gives me visual pleasure as well as a fantastic taste.
