Ingredients

Scale

  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 810 ounces arugula or spinach greens (or a 50/50 mixture)
  • ½ cup Italian parsley leaves (tender stems are okay) or basil leaves
  • 1 cup sliced cucumber (English seedless or Persian cucumber preferred)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (sliced in half)
  • ¼ cup sliced red onion
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, chopped shallot, lemon juice, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix until well combined and set aside.
  2. Combine the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the arugula (or spinach), parsley (or basil), sliced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Toss together gently. Add the sliced strawberries and crumbled feta cheese on top. Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to combine.

Notes

Keep the dressing separate until just before serving to maintain the crispness of the greens.
