Strawberry Mango Spinach Salad


It’s strawberry season!  Does that excite anyone else as much as it does me?  There is just nothing like a good, fresh, local strawberry.  In celebration of this welcome, but brief season, here is a recipe for a colorful and delicious springtime salad.


Strawberry Mango Spinach Salad

¼ cup sugar
¼ cup canola oil
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/8 teaspoon poppy seeds
4 cups fresh spinach
¼ pound fresh strawberries, quartered
½ Melissa’s organic mango - peeled, seeded, and cubed
¼ cup sliced red onion
½ cup slivered almonds, toasted

Place the sugar, oil, salt, poppy seeds, and vinegar in a jar with a lid. Seal jar, and shake vigorously to mix.

In a large bowl, mix together spinach, strawberries, mango, and onion. To serve, toss with dressing and sprinkle with almonds.
