Itai Liptz Cook Blog: Strawberry Spinach Salad

Crisp strawberry spinach salad is a fresh and eye-catching addition to any spring or summer table.

This spinach strawberry salad is chock-full of candied pecans, crumbled feta cheese, and red onions tossed in a white balsamic dressing.

I use a very simple 4-ingredient dressing in this recipe. Try poppyseed, balsamic vinaigrette, or raspberry vinaigrette for a store-bought dressing.

Variations: Instead of diced avocado, try mandarin segments, or grape halves. Make it a main dish and top strawberry spinach salad with salmon croquettes, or grilled chicken or shrimp.

Keep leftover strawberry spinach salad in a covered container, stir it, and add fresh cheese, nuts, and dressing if desired.
