I'm not a big fan of spinach, but this salad was actually really good. The strawberries and dressing really helped to balance out the flavor.

I loved the dressing. It was light and tangy, and it really complemented the spinach and strawberries. I also added some chopped walnuts for a bit of crunch.

So simple, yet packed with so much flavor. I added some crumbled bacon for an extra touch of protein.
