Wash and dry the baby spinach leaves thoroughly, then place them in a large salad bowl.
Rinse the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice them thinly. Add the sliced strawberries to the spinach.
Thinly slice the red onion and add to the salad bowl.
Toast the sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are slightly golden and fragrant. Allow the almonds to cool, then sprinkle them over the salad.
Add the crumbled feta cheese evenly across the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to combine all ingredients.
