This is a wonderful strawberry salad with walnuts and goat cheese added for a delicious twist.

Spinach is so healthy for us.

It is actually one of our 10 healthiest foods to eat. Find our why here.

There is something about the combination of spinach with strawberries that works perfectly.

You can replace the strawberries with blueberries if you wish.

The red strawberries against the green spinach makes for a very pretty salad.

Strawberry Salad with Walnuts & Goat Cheese

For the pomegranate vinaigrette:

2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses (available at Middle Eastern groceries)
1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon finely minced shallot
salt to taste

For the salad:

6 cups spinach or mesclun lettuce mix
1 cup strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
3 ounces soft goat cheese, crumbled (also known as chevre cheese)
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Whisk all the vinaigrette ingredients together and set aside.

Arrange greens on plates. Top with berries, drizzle with dressing and top with walnuts and crumbled goat cheese. Season with freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.

Serves 4

Tips:

• Don't worry if you can't find the pomegranate molasses. Just add the same amount of crushed strawberries and a bit of sugar (about 1/2 a teaspoon). It won't taste exactly the same, but it will still be delicious.
