Ingredients
- Fresh spinach
- Ripe strawberries
- Red onion
- Feta cheese
- Pecans or walnuts

Instructions
- Wash and prep all ingredients. Start by rinsing your fresh spinach leaves and strawberries under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Place fresh spinach in a large bowl. Grab a large mixing bowl and add the spinach as your base.
- Hull and slice strawberries. Remove the green tops from the strawberries and slice them into thin pieces. Add them to the bowl along with the spinach.

- Crumble feta cheese over the salad. Crumble the feta cheese on top of your salad for that creamy touch.
- Toast pecans or walnuts. In a skillet over medium heat, toast your chosen nuts until they are golden brown and fragrant, then sprinkle them over the salad.
- Drizzle balsamic vinaigrette just before serving. Right before you serve, add a drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette and toss everything gently to combine.
Notes
This salad is best enjoyed fresh, and it’s recommended to store leftovers in an airtight container without dressing to maintain crispness.
