Light Strawberry-Spinach Salad image

This strawberry-spinach salad makes a wonderful light summer meal. All of the flavors and colors complement one another very nicely. Farmers here in Washington grow a lot of strawberries, and they're the sweetest ones I've ever tasted. I'm always looking for new and different ways to use them. -Perlene Hoekema, Lynden, Washington

This salad was a disappointment. The strawberries were sour and the spinach was wilted. The dressing was also very bland.

The salad was good, but I found the dressing to be a little bland. I would have liked a dressing with more flavor.

This salad was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a dressing with less sugar.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great. I loved the crunch of the walnuts and the tartness of the cranberries.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but this salad was surprisingly good. The strawberries and dressing really helped to balance out the flavor of the spinach.
