Summer Strawberry Feta Salad

I mean value the conditions is over compensating for dumping snowfall on us throughout the entire months of March together with April. Why produce I enjoin this? It’s at nowadays been inward the 70s-80s hither for the past times calendar week together with it’s VERY humid. Throw inward the rainstorms we’ve had together with you’ve got a wet, humid rut – it feels similar early on July inward early on May.

You know how you lot only lose your appetite when it’s that hot together with humid? I pretty much only desire to sit down approximately eating H2O ice cubes at that point. But, I guess I tin give notice live off this super amazing summertime strawberry feta salad until nosotros figure out a mode to larn the temperature downwards inward our apartment!

This is a go-to repast for me inward the summertime (er, inward May when it’s equally hot equally summer?). It tin give notice live thrown together SO quickly. It doesn’t thing what ingredients you lot accept inward your refrigerator – you lot tin give notice brand this operate amongst pretty much whatever ya got.

You tin give notice add together grilled chicken to this, or you lot tin give notice plough over off it vegetarian.

Funny even out – I got done photographing this recipe, cleaned everything up, together with was halfway through eating the salad earlier I realized that I never added the cooked chicken I had inward the fridge. FAIL.

But I figured that was fine because I swallow this salad without meat virtually of the fourth dimension anyways!

Let’s speak ingredients!

I made this amongst butter lettuce, babe spinach, sliced strawberries, a handful of sliced cucumber, some avocado, a trivial diced tomato, a handful of walnuts, together with feta cheese!

I’m non actually a salad dressing person. Does that brand me super weird?? Anyone amongst me on that?? What I produce similar to produce amongst a salad similar this, is sprinkle a trivial common salt together with pepper over the whole thing together with drizzle it amongst a trivial olive oil.

Maybe that sounds incredibly tardily but I hope – it’s actually flavorful! Not to advert easy.

The beauty of this summertime strawberry feta salad is that you lot tin give notice customize it! Romaine or iceberg lettuce all you lot accept inward the fridge? No problem. Don’t similar walnuts? Toss them out! Have some blueberries to role up? Add them!

Endless possibilities amongst this one, people.

So, if you lot ask me, I’ll live over hither munching on this salad until it cools off. Because turning on the oven has been painful lately amongst the rut together with humidity!

I mean value we’re inward desperate ask of a popsicle or H2O ice cream recipe next. I know you’ll concur amongst me on that one 😉.

I’d beloved it if you lot tag me on instagram if you lot brand this recipe! I tin give notice live constitute at @bluebowlrecipes, amongst lots of practiced nutrient together with an occasional sneak peak into recipe testing inward my stories!

Recipe Notes

NOTE: Any leftover salad tin give notice live stored inward the refrigerator (covered or inward an airtight container) overnight. 

NOTE: Obviously you lot can't only purchase iv strawberries or 1/2 an avocado, but the thought is that you lot tin give notice brand multiple salads throughout the calendar week amongst the ingredients you lot purchase to brand this one! I only wrote the recipe to brand i salad because I abide by that making salads inward batches for the whole calendar week doesn't operate equally good well - the lettuce gets wilted together with things only larn kinda funky. I produce recommend prepping some of the ingredients together with putting it inward containers inward the refrigerator for piece of cake assembly when needed! For representative - accept a container total of diced tomato, a container total of cooked, cubed chicken, etc. This does non operate good amongst avocados, equally they larn bad rapidly in i lawsuit you lot cutting into them - together with the strawberries may larn funky equally well. 

NOTE: Nutrition information does non include chicken.
