This is the perfect dish for Summer and all the ingredients you can get at your local farmer’s market (or at least in Los Angeles we can!). If you have a bbq, potluck, or holiday party planned today try this refreshing and easy salad. This recipes serves about 5 sides so if you want to make it for a large group be sure to double it.
Strawberries are the most popular berry in the world. They go great in salads and as a compliment to a savory dressing like Balsamic Vinaigrette like in this recipe.
