Berry Summer Salad

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!! The sun is shining, it's warming up...and most likely you'll have a gathering, BBQ, picnic or potluck of some sort this weekend. Along with that, there will most likely be lots of food and drinks that might throw you off track and set you back from your health and fitness goals - remember...SUMMER is just around the corner - along with BIKINI SEASON!!! 

So here is a YUMMY triple-berry salad that YOU can bring to your picnics so that you always have a healthy option to fall back on!




Ingredients:

9oz baby spinach, torn
1 cup sliced strawberries
1 cup raspberries
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1/3 cup chopped basil
1 avocado, chopped
4oz feta cheese



Directions: Divide baby spinach between plates then top with berries, almonds, basil and chopped avocado. Crumble goat cheese on top then dress with salad dressing. I recommend Balsamic Glaze or a strawberry balsamic vinegar, but any olive-oil based vinaigrette would be fantastic!
