Number Of Ingredients 21

Ingredients

Candied Pecan Ingredients
1 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup pecan halves
pinch salt
Dressing Ingredients
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup extra light tasting olive oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Salad Ingredients
10 ounces fresh baby spinach - rinsed, dried and torn into bite-size pieces
1/4 small red onion sliced
1 quart fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 avocado, cut into bite sized pieces
1/2 (5 ounce) package blue cheese crumbles

Steps:

Place a sheet of parchment paper on the counter top to dry the pecans. In a small skillet over medium heat melt butter. Add pecans, sugar and salt. Stir until pecans are well coated. Stir until the sugar caramelizes, about 3-5 minutes. Spread onto parchment paper. Separate pecans. Allow to cool. Meanwhile: in a pint size mason jar combine dressing ingredients. Seal and shake until well combined. Set aside on the counter. In a large bowl combine the spinach, onions, strawberries and blueberries. Pour about 1/2 of dressing over salad, and toss. Top with avocado, cheese and candied nuts. Serve remaining dressing on the side. Refrigerate for 15 minutes before serving (or serve immediately). Serve with the remaining dressing on the side. Enjoy!

Tips:

Choose fresh, ripe strawberries. Look for berries that are plump and red, with no bruising or mold. Smaller berries tend to be sweeter than larger ones.
Wash the strawberries thoroughly. Remove the hulls and slice the berries. You can also cut them into quarters if you prefer.
Use baby spinach leaves for a more tender salad. If you use regular spinach, be sure to remove the tough stems.
Add other ingredients to your salad, such as crumbled feta cheese, sliced almonds, or red onion. You can also add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar or a sprinkle of honey for extra flavor.
Serve the salad immediately. Strawberry spinach salad is best when enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Strawberry spinach salad is a refreshing and delicious salad that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With its sweet strawberries, tangy spinach, and creamy feta cheese, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
