Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1 cup Mandarin orange segments (drained, if canned)
- 0.25 cup Red onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Sliced almonds (toasted)
- 2 tablespoons Feta cheese (crumbled)
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinaigrette dressing (low-fat)
Instructions
Rinse and dry the baby spinach leaves thoroughly, then transfer them to a large salad bowl.
Add the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and mandarin orange segments to the bowl.
Sprinkle the thinly sliced red onion on top of the fruit and spinach mixture.
In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before adding to the salad.
Top the salad with crumbled feta cheese for a creamy and salty contrast.
Drizzle the low-fat balsamic vinaigrette dressing over the salad just before serving, and toss gently to combine.
Divide the salad into four servings and enjoy immediately!
