1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
4-5 tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. kosher salt
10-12 grinds fresh pepper
5 oz. box pre-washed spinach
6 oz. box raspberries
6 oz. box blueberries
6 oz. blackberries
1 cup walnuts, whole or chopped
1 chunk of parmesan cheese
This is so easy and very good for lunch or dinner. Pour balsamic in the serving bowl and whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Add salt and pepper, then spinach and berries. I tend not to wash my raspberries (I am partial to Driscoll’s brand), but do wash the blue and blackberries and pat dry with a paper towel before adding to the salad. Add walnuts, toss and serve with a chunk of parmesan cheese on the side. I love to grate big slices on top of the salad. Serve with good bread or your favorite crackers. Try the rosemary and olive oil triscuits! Yum.
Let me know what you think. I have eaten this salad twice since Thanksgiving – good for a little post holiday detox!
