Very Berry Spinach Salad
Baby spinach topped with fresh berries and a "very berry" vinaigrette.
Ingredients:
- 3 C. baby spinach, rinsed and dried
- 1 pint fresh blackberries, raspberries, strawberries or blueberries
- 6 oz. crumbled feta cheese
- 1 green onion, sliced
- 1/4 C. finely chopped walnuts (optional)
- 1/3 C. The Olive Tap’s 100% EVOO (Mission or other light EVOO)
- 3-4 T. The Olive Tap’s Very Berry Balsamic Vinegar
- Salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
To make vinaigrette, thoroughly whisk vinegar and salt/pepper in a small bowl. Add the EVOO in a slow stream while continuing to whisk until it is emulsified. Adjust vinegar and oil ratio to your taste and set aside. Arrange spinach and onion on 4 chilled salad plates. Top spinach with crumbled feta, tomatoes and berries. When ready to serve, drizzle the vinaigrette over the salads. Top with walnuts or additional feta cheese, if desired.
