Light Strawberry-Spinach Salad image

This strawberry-spinach salad makes a wonderful light summer meal. All of the flavors and colors complement one another very nicely. Farmers here in Washington grow a lot of strawberries, and they're the sweetest ones I've ever tasted. I'm always looking for new and different ways to use them. -Perlene Hoekema, Lynden, Washington

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try making it again with a different dressing. Otherwise, it was a nice salad.

Yum! This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and veggies. The strawberries are sweet and juicy, the spinach is crisp and refreshing, and the poppy seed dressing adds a nice nutty flavor. I'll definitely be making this again.

I've made this salad several times and it's always been a hit. The combination of sweet strawberries, crunchy spinach, and tangy poppy seed dressing is simply delicious. It's a great salad for a summer party or potluck.

This salad was a disappointment. The strawberries were bland and the dressing was too oily. I won't be making this again.

Not bad! I thought the dressing was a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise it was a nice salad. I might try making it again with a different dressing.

This salad turned out great! The flavors were well-balanced and the dressing was just the right amount of tangy. I'll be adding this to my regular rotation of recipes.

Refreshing and delicious! The combination of strawberries, spinach, and poppy seed dressing is delightful. I added a bit of crumbled goat cheese for an extra tang. Highly recommend!
