SPINACH SALAD WITH GRILLED SALMON AND STRAWBERRIES
This beautiful salad is delicious and nutritious, too! Grilled salmon is combined with fresh spinach, red bell pepper, fresh mushrooms, and fresh strawberries. Garnished with chopped pecans and a bit of crumbled bacon--leave out the bacon, if you must. I justify it because there is no added sugar in the vinaigrette.

Steps:
- Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl for the vinaigrette. Stir briskly to combine.
- Brush salmon with 1 teaspoon of the vinaigrette on the cut side, and season with salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining vinaigrette.
- Clean the grates of an outdoor grill and preheat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Place the salmon on a grilling mat or fish grill basket on the hot grill, skin side down. Grill for about 10 minutes. Using a turner, carefully flip the salmon, or turn the grill basket, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Salmon should flake easily with a fork when done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Transfer salmon to a plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest while preparing the salad.
- Combine spinach, red bell pepper, mushrooms, strawberries, and reserved vinaigrette in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Remove skin from salmon and flake.
- Divide salad among individual plates, top with flaked salmon, and garnish with chopped pecans and crumbled bacon.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Salmon: Opt for wild-caught salmon for its superior flavor and nutritional value. Look for firm, brightly colored fillets with minimal gray streaks.
- Marinate the Salmon: Marinating the salmon in a flavorful blend of olive oil, herbs, and spices enhances its taste and keeps it moist during grilling.
- Grill the Salmon to Perfection: Cook the salmon over medium-high heat, skin-side down, until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
- Make a Flavorful Dressing: Combine lemon juice, olive oil, honey, and Dijon mustard to create a tangy and flavorful dressing for the salad.
- Assemble the Salad: Layer grilled salmon, spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and feta cheese. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
