Equipment

Ingredients
Balsamic Dressing
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp finely ground black pepper
- 1 large clove of garlic minced
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- ¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
Strawberry Salad
- 6 cups baby spinach
- 1-2 cups sliced strawberries
- ½ cup feta cheese
- ½ cup walnuts
Instructions
Balsamic Dressing
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, dijon mustard, fine sea salt, black pepper, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil. Whisk vigorously until the dressing is fully emulsified.
- Store in a jar with a lid and refrigerate. Shake well before serving.
Salad
- First, place 6 cups of baby spinach in a bowl or serving platter. Then, distribute the sliced strawberries evenly over the spinach, followed by the feta cheese and walnuts. If you're ready to serve, toss the vinaigrette and salad together, ensuring even distribution. This can also be served individually, with each person pouring their own dressing.
- There are many ways to enjoy this salad. Serving it with crusty bread and a glass of wine is always a winner. Two of my favorites are with cold roasted chicken or pork tenderloin.
