Red, White & Blueberry Salad 
Difficulty: Intermediate  |  Prep Time: 20 Minutes  |  Serves 6-8

Ingredients:
  • 1 package of spinach or spring mix lettuce
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 cup blackberries
  • 1 cup halved strawberries
  • 1/4 cup candied walnuts
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese crumbles
  • 1/2 a red onion

    Vinaigrette Ingredients:
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Salt to taste

Begin by washing all your produce and patting it dry with a few paper towels. In a large salad bowl, mix the bag of spinach, halved strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. Set this aside and move on to the dressing.

For the Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing. In a small skillet, add your two cups of chopped strawberries, water, honey, and salt. On medium high heat, let the mixture simmer for about 8 minutes, or until the strawberries have cooked down. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, place the strawberry mixture from the pan into a food processor and with the processor running, slowly and steadily add the olive oil and balsamic vinegar to the mix until it has a creamy consistency.

Once the dressing is complete, toss the salad and dressing. The final touch is to add the candied walnuts and Feta cheese crumbles.
