Sweet and tangy strawberry vinaigrette is made from homemade no refined sugar strawberry jam and drizzled over an array of delicious and healthful veggies and fresh strawberries! A little feta cheese crumbled on top adds just the right amount of salty goodness, but can be substituted for a nut cheese for a vegan alternative.
Ingredients
Spring Salad
- 10 oz. spinach, kale, and red or green chard mix
- 1 large avocado, pitted and sliced
- handful strawberries, stems trimmed and sliced
- 1 cucumber, peeled and sliced
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 tbsp. feta cheese, crumbled
Strawberry Vinaigrette
- ⅓ cup no refined sugar strawberry and chia seed jam
- 2½ tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 4 tbsp. water
- pinch of course sea salt
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients for the vinaigrette in a glass jar. Put the lid on a shake until everything is well blended.
- Rinse, slice, and toss all the ingredients for the salad and put them in a bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the feta cheese on top (or a yummy cashew cheese for a vegan alternative), or have the dressing on the side for everyone to drizzle as they like.
