With spring strawberries making their annual debut, I am always looking for new, delicious ways to enjoy them. Pies, cakes, and other sweet items are obvious ways to use strawberries, but I also like to incorporate them into my savory dishes, too. This Asian strawberry spinach salad is a fresh, delicious lunch or light dinner, with a dressing infused with soy, ginger and lime, and the unexpected sweetness of the strawberries is the perfect balance to the tartness of the other ingredients. You really must try it!

Ingredients
  

For the salad

  • 4-5 whole strawberries sliced
  • 1/2 of a medium avocado pitted and chopped
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 2 tablespoons toasted almonds roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup fried wonton strips

For the dressing

  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1-2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 small shallot minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • The juice of 1 small lime
  • 1/4 teaspoon sriracha
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place all of the salad ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Place all of the dressing ingredients in a mason jar. Shake vigorously until combined and emulsified. Drizzle desired amount of dressing over prepared salad, and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.

Notes

Make this recipe dinner-worthy by adding sliced grilled chicken. The dressing can be doubled for a crowd. Leftover dressing can be stored in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
This recipe is one of my favorite weekday lunches, but it is also makes a pretty enough presentation to serve to guests.
