INGREDIENTS:

  • Salad:
  • 4 cups lightly packed baby spinach
  • 2 cups sliced strawberries
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup feta, crumbled
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds or pine nuts, toasted (125 ml)
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
  • Dressing:
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Whisk together the oil and vinegar in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add spinach, strawberries, almonds, sesame seeds, and feta.
  2. Cooks and cooks' helpers treat the almonds as snack food. It's best to double the almonds so that by the time the salad is ready to serve, there'll be some almonds left!
  3. Gently toss until the salad is evenly coated with dressing
  4. Substitutions: Try using fresh raspberries, mandarin oranges, kiwi, or blueberries.
