A fresh and colorful salad made with baby spinach, a medley of berries, creamy cheese, and crunchy nuts, all tossed in a light balsamic vinaigrette. It’s a perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup raspberries or blackberries
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta or goat cheese
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper.
  2. In a large salad bowl, combine spinach, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and red onion.
  3. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently.
  4. Top with crumbled cheese and nuts just before serving.

Notes

  • Use any combination of fresh berries depending on what’s in season.
  • Add grilled chicken or shrimp for a heartier salad.
  • Toast the nuts for extra flavor and crunch.
  • For a vegan version, omit the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.
  • Can be made ahead, but add dressing, cheese, and nuts just before serving to maintain texture.
