Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Large Bowl

Ingredients
  

Balsamic Dressing

  • 1 cup balsamic vinegar
  • ¼ cup honey or brown sugar

Spinach Strawberry Salad

  • 10 oz baby spinach fresh
  • 3 cups strawberries cleaned and hulled, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1 cup pecans toasted, some chopped

Instructions
 

Salad Dressing - Balsamic Glaze

  • In a small saucepan, heat balsamic vinegar and honey over medium heat.
  • Bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat to simmer and cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens and reduces by about half (about 10 or so minutes).
  • Remove from heat and pour the balsamic glaze into a heat-proof bowl to cool off. The glaze will get thicker as it cools off.
  • Consistency should be thick enough to coat the back of the spoon but should not be overly thick.

Salad

  • In a large bowl, combine all of the salad ingredients, except the pecans. Toss to combine.
  • Divide the salad into individual serving bowls.
  • Top each serving bowl with whole and chopped toasted pecans.
  • Drizzle the top of the salad in each bowl with balsamic glaze.
