Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 large ripe avocado, diced
  • 4 cups baby spinach or mixed greens
  • 1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 3 tbsp toasted sliced almonds
  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, salt, and pepper until creamy. Stir in the poppy seeds.
  2. Place the greens in a large bowl. Top with strawberries, avocado, red onion, feta, and almonds. Pour over about two-thirds of the dressing.
  3. Gently toss the salad until everything is lightly coated. Drizzle the remaining dressing on top and serve right away.

Notes

The salad is at its best within 30 minutes of dressing it. If you need to wait, keep the dressing separate and toss just before eating, or drizzle the dressing over the avocado to slow browning.
