To start, in a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the almonds and cook, stirring constantly, until they are lightly toasted.
Remove the almonds from the pan and let them cool.
In a bowl, mix the sesame and poppy seeds, sugar, chopped onion, paprika, white wine vinegar, cider vinegar, and olive oil. This is the dressing for our salad.
Just before serving, in a large bowl, mix together the spinach, cheese, seasoned dressing and cranberries. If desired, transfer to another dish, but even in the bowl, the colors of the salad will be very attractive!
