Strawberry Feta Tossed Salad with Pesto Vinaigrette

Strawberry Feta Tossed Salad with Pesto Vinaigrette an easy, light and delicious meal. 

Today I want to share a salad recipe that I  have been eating all summer long, Strawberry Feta Tossed Salad with Pesto Vinaigrette. This salad is easy to make, has a limited amount of ingredients, is something that you can actually “prep” ahead and keep in containers to toss together when you are ready and is even a great side for most summer meals and parties.

Another great things about this salad is that you can customize it, if you don’t have strawberries use raspberries, or blackberries.

If you don’t like onions than leave them off. No walnuts in the pantry, add pecans instead. The possibilities are endless and frankly the “star” of the salad is the easy pesto vinaigrette.

I love pesto and make it a lot, in fact last year while tending to my neighbors garden I was making it all of the time with the surplus basil they grew, if you missed the recipe you can find it here.

6 cups of torn lettuce leaves

2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced

1/2 small red onion, sliced

Place all ingredients in a large bowl and toss. At this point you can also add the dressing if you want and toss it again. I like the dressing on the side so that each person can add their own to their salad.
