Ingredients

Servings
  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 1 spinach package (5 ounces), organic
  • 8 ounces strawberry halved, about 2 cups halved
  • 1 avocado large, sliced
  • ½ red onion small, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
  • cup almonds raw, sliced
  • ¼ cup pistachio chopped, shelled, roasted
  • For the balsamic strawberry vinaigrette:
  • 3 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, grated or finely minced
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tablespoon jam strawberry or jam of choice
  • salt freshly ground, to taste
  • black pepper freshly ground, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a mason jar or small bowl, add all of the dressing ingredients. Shake or mix well to combine. Taste and add additional salt/pepper, if necessary.
  2. Toast the almonds on the stovetop: add the almonds to a pan and place over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 2-5 minutes until almonds are slightly golden brown. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  3. Add spinach to a large bowl, layer on the strawberries, avocado slices, red onion, feta, toasted almonds, and chopped pistachios. Feel free to add dressing now or set it out for individual servings. Top salad bowls with extra toasted almonds and drizzle each bowl with 1/4 of the dressing. Serves 4.

Notes

  • This salad is best enjoyed the same day you make it to keep things nice and fresh, but will also be delicious the next day too.
  • Use a different fruit: if strawberries aren't available, try blueberries, peaches, raspberries or blackberries. They'll all be delicious.
  • Make your own DIY fruity balsamic vinaigrette: I'm in love with this dressing because you can use any fruit jam you like to really make it your own. Try raspberry, strawberry, blackberry or something else for a fun twist.
