Strawberry spinach salad

Approx. 85 Calories per serving. Recipe makes 8 servings.
This is one of my favorite simple summer salads and made a similar version of it previously (recipe here). Last weekend, I planned a quick day trip to visit some friends in San Francisco and hoped that this would travel well for the short flight, which it did. I added the vinegar after I arrived, just before serving.


Ingredients
  • 3 cups strawberries
  • 8 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 1 cup red onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped Nasturtium flowers (optional)
  • 10 Tbs blue cheese
  • 1 oz balsamic vinegar

Directions

  1. Dice onion, slice strawberries, and chop edible flowers.
  2. Layer red onions, stawberries, flowers, and blue cheese on top of the spinach.
  3. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
