Strawberry Spinach Salad Recipe TIPS
Here are a few tips about what to use that will make this salad super amazing. Due to the fact that I love gardening you may want to try growing your own spinach in the spring!
- Use a fresh red onion that has been soaked for about 30 minutes after slicing. Soaking the onion preserves the flavor and takes the lingering aftertaste away.
- Grow your own… strawberries and spinach are super easy to grow year-round.
- Toast up your own pecans in the oven air fryer and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
- Serve the salad fresh and don’t let it sit to long
