Strawberry Salad w/ Strawberry Vinaigrette


This Strawberry salad is the epitome of summer salads. This recipe combines the sweetness of fresh strawberries with crunchy walnuts and savory, salty bleu cheese. The strawberry vinaigrette complements the salad perfectly with a touch of sweetness and lots of tang. 



3 cups spring mix lettuce, washed, chopped
1 cup strawberries, washed, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced in 2 inch slices
½ cup crushed walnuts
½ cup bleu cheese

Combine lettuce, strawberries, onion and walnuts in a large salad bowl. Toss gently to mix all ingredients. Sprinkle cheese liberally over vegetables. Serve immediately



For the vinaigrette
1 cup non-infused olive oil, like our Hojiblanca
½ cup Traditional 18 Yr. balsamic vinegar
¼ cup Strawberry balsamic vinegar

To make vinaigrette, combine olive oil, champagne vinegar and oregano vinegar in a small mixing bowl. Whisk together ingredients until well combined and mixture has thickened slightly.
