Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • cutting board
  • knife
  • salad tongs

Ingredients
  

  • baby spinach (fresh, washed, and dried)
  • strawberries (hulled and sliced)
  • blueberries
  • raspberries
  • goat cheese (crumbled)
  • red onion (thinly sliced)
  • pecans (toasted or raw)
  • raspberry vinaigrette

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry the spinach thoroughly. Rinse all berries gently and pat them dry to prevent excess moisture.
  • Add the baby spinach to a large serving bowl or platter, keeping the greens light and fluffy.
  • Evenly distribute strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries over the spinach.
  • Sprinkle sliced red onion, crumbled goat cheese, and pecans evenly across the salad.
  • Drizzle raspberry vinaigrette lightly over the salad, starting with a small amount.
  • Gently toss the salad just before serving and serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

For best results, use fresh and dry ingredients to avoid a watery salad. Add dressing just before serving. You can customize with proteins like grilled chicken or tofu. Swap goat cheese with feta or avocado for variation.
