DIRECTIONS:
In small bowl combine tomatoes and onion with 1/4 cup dressing
and marinate in refrigerator for a few hours or overnight.
Also marinate shrimp pieces in a separate bowl with 1/4 cup
dressing for same length of time. Thoroughly wash spinach and
pat dry. Just before ready to serve tear leaves into serving
