Speedy Spinach-and-Carrot Salad

Tasty tip: To make this sweet salad savory, omit the brown sugar and don't add the optional cranberries
I whip up this salad all the time. Just toss prewashed baby spinach with grated carrots. The dressing requires nothing more than whisking together vinegar, olive oil, and brown sugar. Anybody can do that!
