Ingredients

Strawberry fields salad
1 8oz package baby spinach
1 red onion
1 pint fresh strawberries sliced
2oz crumbled feta cheese
1 cup spicy walnuts ( recipe below)
Juice of 1 lemon
3-4 tablespoons balsalmic vinegar
fresh ground pepper ( optional)
Spicy walnuts
1 cup walnut halves
1 tablespoon oil
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cumin powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne powder( reduce amount for less heat or substitute paprika)
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

1

To make spicy walnuts, heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan on medium heat and roast the walnuts. This can also be done in the oven
2

When it is almost roasted, add 1/2 tablespoon oil , honey and stir/toss to coat the walnuts . Then add the spice powders. Add cayenne according to your preference . I intended for these walnuts to be properly spicy.
3

Once the spices are roasted too and the walnuts are evenly coated , switch off the heat. Sprinkle some sea salt over the walnuts. Take it off the heat and let it cool in a baking tray.
4

Prep the strawberries by hulling them and slicing thinly lengthwise. Slice the onions in thin circles and separate the pieces.
5

Combine the spinach, strawberries, onions and feta cheese.
6

For the salad dressing , mix the juice of one lemon with a few tablespoons of balsalmic vinegar or a vinaigrette. Add a few grinds of pepper.
7

Toss the salad with the dressing and let the flavors mingle for at least half an hour before serving. Fold in or garnish with spicy walnuts just before serving.
8

Note : This salad stays well in the fridge for a few hours. I have actually eaten it the next day also but the spinach does become a bit soggy by then.
