Strawberry Spinach Salad is one of our family favorites. All of our kids love it (minus the red onions…those are put there for Brad and I) and even consider it a “dessert” because of the strawberries! We eat it year-round, but it tastes the best with new baby greens and freshly picked strawberries which are almost in season!
This is a Trim Healthy Mama ‘S’ recipe because of the cheese and nuts. (If you’re not on-plan and want to save some time, it’s also delicious served with a store-bought, creamy poppy-seed dressing or a raspberry vinaigrette.)
Enjoy!
