This strawberry spinach salad is refreshing, full of colors and flavors, perfect for the Spring-Summer meal options.

Spring onset brings a lot of strawberries, and this spinach strawberry salad is mandatory to serve till strawberries last in the markets, or at least making them on the side is what makes me excited about food.

Strawberry Spinach Salad

Strawberry Spinach Ingredients:

  • Strawberry:  Fresh strawberries bring the best sweetness and color to the dish.
  • Raspberry:  I love to add raspberries to my salads as I love the sweetness and tangy flavor they bring. This is optional.
  • Blueberry:  I love berries in general, so whatever I could get my hands on, I used them in this recipe. You can skip these, too.
  • Baby Spinach:  Crispy baby spinach is perfect for this salad. If you can't get these, try using salad mix or lettuce instead.
  • Pecans:   For the nutty flavor and crunch, use toasted pecans. I would even prefer adding toasted cashews.
  • Feta Cheese:   The saltiness of feta cheese adds so much flavor to this salad. You can add blue cheese or goat cheese instead.

What's in Strawberry Spinach Salad Dressing:

  • Balsamic Vinegar
  • Olive Oil
  • Honey
  • Dijon Mustard
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper Powder

Whisk all the ingredients well and store the dressing in the refrigerator till you use it.

How to make Strawberry Spinach Salad:

Prepare the dressing:  In a mixing bowl or cup, add all the ingredients for the dressing and whisk them well so that all the liquids mix well.

Toast Pecans:  Toast pecans in a pan over medium heat. Make sure you watch them carefully and do not let them burn.

Assemble the salad:  In a large salad bowl, add spinach, strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, and pecans. Drizzle salad dressing over and toss gently. Add feta cheese. Serve and enjoy.

Tips to make the best ever strawberry spinach Salad:

  • Use Fresh fruits in this recipe for the best results.
  • I have used raspberries since they were available to me, but you can skip them.
  • Prepare salad dressing, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
  • If you are mixing the salad ingredients, store them in an airtight container for up to 1 day, as the salad and fruits will get soggy.
  • You can use toasted cashews or walnuts instead of pecans.
  • Instead of feta cheese, you can also substitute goat cheese or blue cheese.
  • If you like raw onions in your salad, then add sliced red onions to the salad.
