Strawberry Feta Salad with Balsamic Glaze
The combination of fresh, sweet strawberries and a rich balsamic glaze gives this light and refreshing salad an almost dessert-like quality. However, the peppery arugula and the salty Feta cheese balance out the sweetness, while the pecans add a satisfying crunch.
Ingredients
- Salad Ingredients:
- 2 cups Romaine lettuce chopped
- 2 cup arugula
- 1- pint strawberries fresh, trimmed and quartered
- 3 oz. Feta cheese
- ½ cup pecan halves
- Sea salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Add the Romaine lettuce, arugula, strawberries, Feta cheese and pecans to a large bowl. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and drizzle with the olive oil. Gently toss to combine and set aside.
- To make the balsamic glaze, heat the balsamic vinegar over medium-high heat until it begins to boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring continually, until the liquid is reduced to about 1/3 of its original volume, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and cool slightly before drizzling over the salad. Transfer the salad to individual salad bowls and serve immediately. Enjoy!
