If you haven’t tried a spinach salad with strawberries and feta before, you’re missing out on a "berry" delicious combo! This trifecta of simple ingredients provides the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and earthy notes plus softer textures contrasted with a little bit of crunch and chewy bite from the fresh spinach. While strawberry spinach salad is usually a summer offering at restaurants, you can make one at home year-round.

Our take on this popular restaurant salad also includes sliced onions and almonds, although you can easily substitute walnuts or sunflower seeds. The secret sauce (well, dressing) that marries all of these beautiful flavors together in harmony is our Poppyseed Dressing. A creamy vinaigrette, this dreamy dressing is made with real ingredients like avocado oil, organic vinegar, and onion puree for a savory flavor with just a hint of sweetness. This Strawberry Spinach Salad is also delicious topped with shredded rotisserie chicken or air-fried tofu for added protein.
