Oh my gosh that looks TO DIE FOR!!
That's the salad I eat almost daily too except I ALWAYS add feta cheese!!!!
thanks for sharing!!!
looks super yummy!!
I've been eating a lot of salads with strawberries, blueberries, walnuts, pineapple and poppyseed dressing. I hope I don't grow tired of poppyseed. I'm definitely going to try the dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds.
um, yum. this looks delicious, and now i am hungry. must make asap.
salad is the best-with strawberries? even best-ier! 😉
Nothing screams summer like a good fruit salad with greens–YUM. I make my own sweet salad dressing with vinegar, oil, and sugar. If I knew where the recipe card was right now I'd leave it here for you in the comments…. I totally know what you mean about OD-ing on a salad dressing–been there, done that!

i don't know why, but i just CAN'T get on the fruit-on-salad-greens bandwagon. i feel very strongly that there is a place for fruit, and a place for salad, and they don't have the same place.
exception: matchstick green apples. #win.
Looks so fantastic!!
There is a salad that I eat almost everyday too:) THink red peppers, red onion, cucumber, grilled chicken, feta cheese, tomatoes and for the dressing I use olive oil and vinegar. YUM!! I love the strawberry thing too:)
I LOVE summer salads! Both of those dressings are so good. Have you ever tried white balsamic vinagrette? It's my favorite summer salad dressing. Your salad looks so yummy I want it right now!
yummo!!!!!!! making that for lunch for SURE!
mhmm, i heart raspberry vinaigrette.
all the accessories in your salad sound great!
YUMMY. must try it!
I LOVE this kind of salad too! Its a staple at my house! Trader Joes has a really amazing Cranberry Walnut Gorgonzola dresssing that I am addicted too!! I add diced apple and avocado. Im telling you..LOVE!
MM. That looks delish!
My favorite go to these days may not sound delish, but ctually I crave it.
Cut up all raw veggies:
1 ear of corn
1 crown of broccoli
1 bell pepper
a handful of baby spinach
(sometimes I add cauliflower too).
Drizzle with balsamic vinegar
and olive oil.
Add 1 chopped up Avo.
Sprinkle on kosher salt and black pepper.
The avo get all mushed in and makes a creamy dressing. The corn is so sweet and everything is all crunchy. YUM!
i make something really similar … mixed greens, strawberries, candied pecans and goat cheese. YUM!
Sounds very similar to my lunch! Yummy!
love me a fresh, fruity salad. yumm-o!
