– Spring Salad with Goat Cheese and Strawberries –
Spring has sprung! To celebrate the season we´re making a Spring Salad with Goat Cheese and Strawberries. This is the kind of salad you order at a restaurant, pay big bucks and it leaves you in 7th heaven. Here is the thing, you can make this salad at home for much cheaper and it´s effortless to put together. This salad is loaded with different flavors and textures, it´s sweet, it´s savory, it´s absolutely delicious. Simple ingredients, easy to make and ready within minutes. Remember to use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil, this is what really brings all the flavors together.
– Using Seasonal Produce –
You can make this salad all-year round, as the ingredients used can be found all year. However, when you use produce that is in-season, you add a new dimension of flavors. For this recipe I used fresh spinach and fresh strawberries, both of which are in-season during spring. Either way you slice it, this salad is amazing, but when you make it in peek-season, it´s absolutely incredible.

I’d never thought of putting goat’s cheese and strawberries together but this sounds really good. I’ll have to wait a few more months for strawberries to come into season though as they’re an early summer fruit here.
