Ingredients
  

8 cups fresh baby spinach, washed and dried

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup crumbled feta cheese

½ cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped

½ cup red onion, thinly sliced

½ cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Spinach: In a large salad bowl, combine the fresh baby spinach, ensuring it is well-dried to avoid a soggy salad.

    Add the Strawberries: Gently fold in the sliced strawberries to the spinach, distributing them evenly.

      Incorporate the Feta: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the spinach and strawberries, allowing for an even distribution of creamy goodness.

        Add Walnuts and Onions: Toss in the toasted walnuts and thinly sliced red onion. The walnuts provide a delightful crunch, while the onions add a sharp flavor that complements the sweetness of the strawberries.

          Dress the Salad: Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette over the mixed ingredients. Start with half of the dressing and toss gently. If desired, add more dressing to taste.

            Season: Sprinkle with salt and pepper to elevate the flavors, adjusting to your personal preference.

              Serve: Transfer the salad to individual plates or serve in the large bowl. For an added touch, garnish with fresh mint leaves.

                Enjoy! Savor this vibrant salad as a refreshing side dish or a light main course.
