- ¼ cup balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Wash and dry the spinach and strawberries. Slice the strawberries and red onion.
- In a large bowl or on a serving platter, layer the baby spinach, sliced strawberries, and red onion.

Nutrition
Notes
- Dry the spinach well: Excess water can make the salad watery and dilute the balsamic glaze, so dry the spinach thoroughly after washing.
- Slice strawberries right before serving: Freshly sliced berries keep the salad looking bright and prevent extra juices from pooling.
- Use a light hand with glaze: Balsamic glaze is concentrated, so drizzle lightly, toss, then add more only if needed.
- Toast the almonds if you have time: A quick toast adds deeper flavor and extra crunch.
- Make it party friendly: Assemble everything except the glaze, then drizzle right before serving so the salad stays crisp.
