Quick, easy, nutritious and of course super tasty. That is why this is my Favourite Summer Salad Recipe.
Whether you are going to grow your own ingredients for this, or grab them from your local supermarket or grocery store, this salad really is the perfect summer salad. The strawberries provide a wonderful texture, the baby spinach leaves are incredibly tasty, and if fresh, quite crisp – and the orange or mandarin segments add not only a sweet flavour, but also the dressing.
Favourite Summer Salad
- 4 cups baby spinach leaves
- 2 cups strawberries
- 1 cup orange segments or a small can of mandarin slices
- rinse spinach really well by submerging in water, swishing alot, and rinse under cold running water. Dry the leaves in a salad spinner if you have one, otherwise, let sit in a collander while you prepare the berries
- Either hull or slice of the very top of the berries, rinse well in cold water, and cut into chunks
- Peel the orange segments to that there is no peel or pith remaining. If using canned mandarin slices, drain off the liquid.
- Add all of the washed and drained ingredients to a salad bowl, stir and serve.
