Spinach-Strawberry Salad with Feta & Walnuts

Sweet strawberries, salty feta and crunchy walnuts jazz up a simple spinach salad. The balsamic vinaigrette is incredibly easy; fresh shallots add more zip than you'll find in any commercial dressing.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon best-quality balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped shallot
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 6 cups baby spinach
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup toasted chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Whisk oil, vinegar, shallot, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to allow shallots to soften and mellow a bit.
  2. Add spinach, strawberries, feta and walnuts to the bowl and toss to coat with the dressing.
