Would it really be summer if I didn't have a delicious fresh and fruity salad for you guys? It has everything - sweetness, crunchy, crisp, creamy, and bold flavors, perfect for an easy lunch or dinner pairing!
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 bag of baby spinach
1/3 cup of feta, crumbled
1/3 cup of candied pecans (the best are at Trader Joe's)
1/2 cup of grape tomatoes, sliced in half lengthwise
1 avocado, diced
1/2 cup of strawberries, cut into quarters
1/2 red onion, cut thinly into half-moons
Dressing
1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Combine the ingredients for the salad dressing and mix until homogenous - a mason jar sealed to shake up does a great job.
Assemble the salad, top with the dressing, and serve, enjoy!
