Description
A fresh and vibrant strawberry crunch salad with sweet berries, crunchy granola, toasted almonds, and creamy feta, tossed in a bright honey-lime dressing.
Ingredients
- 6 cups mixed greens (spring mix or baby spinach)
- 1½ cups fresh strawberries, sliced
- ½ cup granola or chopped honey-roasted nuts
- ¼ cup sliced almonds, toasted
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese
- ¼ cup dried cranberries (optional)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2. In a large bowl, add mixed greens, sliced strawberries, granola, toasted almonds, and feta cheese.
3. Toss gently to combine all salad ingredients.
4. Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the salad and toss lightly until evenly coated.
5. Top with dried cranberries if using and serve immediately.
Notes
Granola adds a unique crunch but can be substituted with honey-roasted nuts if preferred.
Add dressing just before serving to keep the salad crisp.
Try goat cheese instead of feta for a creamier flavor.
Perfect as a spring or summer side dish.
