Ingredients
Strawberry Spinach Salad
- ¾ cup pecans, roughly chopped and toasted
- 10 oz fresh baby spinach
- 1 quart ripe strawberries, hulled and quartered
- 4 oz feta cheese
Balsamic Poppyseed Dressing
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, poppy seeds, honey, salt, and pepper. Adjust the quantities according to your taste preferences.
- Toast walnuts or pecans: Spread the pecans evenly on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven (350°F/175°C) and toast the pecans for about 8-10 minutes. Keep a close eye on them, as they can burn quickly. Cool before adding to the salad.
- In a large bowl, add spinach leaves, sliced strawberries, nuts, feta cheese. Drizzle poppy seed dressing over the salad, toss gently. Enjoy!
