My mom is coming to visit next week during my son's spring break. I can't wait to make her this special salad with all her favorites!
1 package (6 oz) fresh baby spinach
1 medium nectarine, chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
2 medium kiwifruit, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
Strawberry Vinaigrette:
1/2 cup halved fresh strawberries
1 tbsp balsalmic vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp dried tarragon
1/8 tsp pepper
1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp olive oil
In a large bowl, combine the spinach, nectarine, strawberries, kiwi and walnuts.
Place the first six vinaigrette ingredients in a blender; cover and process for 15 seconds. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Drizzle over salad and toss to coat.
