Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Butter Toasted Almonds

[heart_this] · Jul 14, 2007 · 4 Comments

Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Butter Toasted Almonds

Strawberry season is pretty much over and there were still a lot of recipes that I wanted to try. There were still a few stalls with strawberries at the market and I picked some up. One of the the recipes that I wanted to try was Spinach & Strawberry Salad with Buttered Almonds from Seasonal Ontario Food . I used the recipe pretty much as is, though I added some chopped mint and reduced the amount of oil. It was really good. A perfect use of some of the last of the strawberries of the season.

    Love the look of this salad! I really like putting fruit in salad… the words “butter toasted almonds” are making me salivate.
