Ingredients
Method
- Make the balsamic glaze:In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey (or brown sugar). Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces by half and becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Assemble the salad:In a large bowl, combine baby spinach, sliced strawberries, blueberries, and crumbled feta cheese. Toss gently to mix.
- Plate and finish:Divide the salad into individual serving bowls or arrange on a platter. Top with whole and chopped toasted pecans. Drizzle each serving with the cooled balsamic glaze just before serving.
Notes
For a heartier version, top the salad with grilled chicken or shrimp. You can also prep the balsamic glaze ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to one week. Make sure it’s completely cooled before drizzling to avoid wilting the spinach.
