Ingredients

FOR THE DRESSING

1/3 c. extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 c. fresh lemon juice

3 tbsp. honey

1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar 

1 tbsp. poppy seeds

2 tsp. dijon mustard

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

FOR THE SALAD

 2 5-oz. containers baby spinach

1 lb. strawberries, halved or sliced

2 oranges, peeled and sliced (I love it with Pomegranate Seeds.)

1 1/2 c. chopped pecans, toasted (Use your favorite nuts)

4 oz. goat cheese, crumbled or Feta Cheese

 

Directions

  1. For the dressing: In a small jar, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, vinegar, poppy seeds, mustard, salt, and pepper. Seal the jar; shake vigorously to combine. Set aside.
  2. For the salad: Just before serving, add the spinach to a large bowl or platter; top with half of the strawberries and orange slices. Drizzle with half of the dressing; gently toss to coat. Top the salad with the remaining berries, orange slices, pecans, and goat cheese. Drizzle with your desired amount of the remaining dressing, and serve the remainder on the side, if you like.
