Strawberry and Boursin Spinach Salad image

This is a twist on a fabulous and fast recipe I found in Eating Well Magazine; it is vegetarian and low sodium. I think this would be fabulous for a bridal/baby shower luncheon! It is a great lunch salad with some bread and butter. The magazine suggests topping it with a grilled or poached chicken breast (sliced) for a great healthy dinner meal.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I loved this salad. The strawberries and Boursin cheese really balance out the bitterness of the spinach.
