Light Strawberry-Spinach Salad
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 20 min.
YIELD: 8 servings.
This strawberry-spinach salad makes a wonderful light summer meal. All of the flavors and colors complement one another very nicely. Farmers here in Washington grow a lot of strawberries, and they're the sweetest ones I've ever tasted. I'm always looking for new and different ways to use them. —Perlene Hoekema, Lynden, Washington
