Today I’m sharing one of my favorite salads! This Strawberry Gorgonzola Green Salad with its homemade vinaigrette really makes this salad pop with flavor! It’s extra healthy with its spinach and satisfying with cashews and cheese! The crunch and flavor make getting your greens so much easier! Baked Kale Chips are another easy way to add greens to your diet!
Fruit and nut salads are some of my favorites, like my Mango Chicken Salad with Cashews! Or my Fruit and Cabbage Salad! So fresh and healthy. Winter fruit salads make your days brighter!
Strawberry Gorgonzola Green Salad
Make it a meal and add some Sun-Dried Tomato Garlic Cheesy Bread. The two go hand in hand.
Doesn’t it look delicious? Just wait until you add the homemade vinaigrette!
You could add it after dishing up, or combine it all together before serving.
Ethier way, it’s going to be delicious! Of course, you could add any salad dressing you’d like, but this homemade vinaigrette is so good, you might want to drink it.
I like using my magic bullet to really blend all the ingredients, but I’ve also used a shaker. Both work well.
This Strawberry Gorgonzola Green Salad makes a great summer salad, but it’s also a great winter pick me up!
How to Make Strawberry Gorgonzola Green Salad
Items needed:
- Salad Spinner – this is the one I have and I like the pull cord and bowl to use.
