Strawberry Spinach Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette image

I found the original recipe on Allrecipes.com, although I tweeked it a bit. The balsamic really adds alot of flavor to this salad and the almonds give it a nice crunch. You could toss in some cooked chicken and call it dinner real easy.

I'm not a big fan of spinach salads, but this one was really good! The strawberries and balsamic vinegar added a nice touch of sweetness and tanginess. I'll definitely make this again.

I thought this salad was just okay. The dressing was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with a different dressing.

This salad was a disappointment. The dressing was bland and the strawberries were sour. I won't be making this again.

This salad was really easy to make and it turned out great! I used a balsamic glaze instead of the dressing and it was delicious. Will definitely make again!

The dressing was a bit too oily for my liking. I think I'll try it with less olive oil next time.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party. The combination of sweet strawberries, tangy balsamic vinegar, and crunchy spinach was perfect. I'll definitely be making this again!
