Instructions:

  1. Combine dressing ingredients (except poppy seeds) in blender jar. Give it enough time to completely pulverize the onion and turn a pretty pink color.
  2. Remove to a separate container.
  3. Add poppy seed just before serving, stirring well.
  4. Combine lettuce, spinach, and pasta, tossing until combined.
  5. Add just enough dressing to coat.
  6. Add strawberries, bacon and mozzarella last, stirring carefully to prevent breaking them apart.
  7. Serve with additional dressing on the side. Store remains in the refrigerator.
