1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Spinach Base: In a large salad bowl, add the washed and dried baby spinach as your base.

    Add Strawberries: Gently layer the sliced strawberries over the spinach for a vibrant splash of color and sweetness.

      Incorporate Feta and Onions: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and thinly sliced red onion evenly over the salad for added creaminess and a hint of sharpness.

        Mix in Walnuts: Add the toasted walnuts to introduce some crunch and nutty flavor.

          Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey (or maple syrup), and season with salt and pepper to taste until well combined.

            Dress the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving to keep the ingredients fresh.

              Toss Gently: Using tongs, gently toss the salad to ensure everything is coated with the dressing without bruising the spinach and strawberries.

                Serve Immediately: Enjoy this fresh and vibrant salad as a side dish or a light meal!
