Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh spinach, washed and dried

1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prep the Greens: In a large salad bowl, add the fresh spinach. Make sure it is thoroughly washed and dried to avoid sogginess.

    Add Strawberries: Gently toss the sliced strawberries into the bowl with the spinach, ensuring an even distribution for a burst of sweetness in every bite.

      Incorporate Onions: Scatter the thinly sliced red onion over the top of the spinach and strawberries. The onions add a nice sharpness that balances the sweetness of the strawberries.

        Cheese and Nuts: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped walnuts across the salad. The feta brings creaminess, while walnuts add a satisfying crunch and healthy fats.

          Make the Dressing: In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and pepper. Whisk or shake until emulsified.

            Dress the Salad: Drizzle the dressing generously over the salad. Gently toss everything together using salad tongs or two large forks, making sure the dressing coats all ingredients without bruising the spinach.

              Taste and Adjust: Before serving, taste the salad for seasoning. Add more salt, pepper, or sweetener if desired.

                Serve: Enjoy this colorful and nutritious salad immediately as a side dish or a light main course!
