Spinach-Strawberry Salad with Berry Vinaigrette
8 cups baby spinach leaves
4 cups strawberries, fresh sliced
½ red onion, thinly sliced
¼ cup crumbled feta
½ cup walnuts, chopped (or other favorite nut or seed)
Dressing - in a small bowl, whisk together the following:
½ virgin olive oil
¼ cup balsamic (or raspberry-infused wine vinegar for a lighter, less sweet option)
2 Tbsp honey
Pinch smoked paprika
Salt & pepper to taste
In a large bowl, gently toss all salad ingredients. Pour dressing over top and toss gently to just combine. Sprinkle feta over the top of salad or just on individual plates as it can get “mashed into” the salad very easily.
Spinach does not generally keep very long and becomes wilted quickly. This salad is best served immediately.
