Crunchy Strawberry Romaine Feta Salad

A vibrant salad combining crunchy romaine, juicy strawberries, creamy feta, and a tangy balsamic vinaigrette for a refreshing summer dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head Romaine Lettuce, chopped
  • 2 cups Strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 Red Onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup Walnuts or Pecans, toasted
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinaigrette

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Greens: Start by washing your romaine lettuce thoroughly. Shake off the excess water, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. Toss it into a large salad bowl.
  2. Slice the Strawberries: Next, slice the strawberries into quarters or halves, depending on their size.
  3. Chop the Red Onion: For the red onion, slice a small amount and chop it finely.
  4. Prepare the Nuts: If using nuts, chop them roughly or leave them whole. Toast in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes.
  5. Toss it All Together: In your salad bowl, add the strawberries, chopped onion, and nuts. Crumble the feta on top.
  6. Add the Dressing: Drizzle your balsamic vinaigrette over the top. Toss everything gently.
  7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Plate the Salad: Serve it in individual bowls or plates, garnishing with extra feta or sliced strawberries.
