This quick and easy berry and feta cheese salad takes around 5 minutes or less to make and can be made ahead of time as an easy lunch for work! With a mixture of berries and feta cheese, this salad is sure to be a go-to recipe!
Salads are super easy to make, and they are nutritious. Making a salad at your house will be A LOT cheaper than getting one from a grocery store or even a restaurant.
The prep time for this takes less than 5 minutes, and then all you have to do is either put it on a plate (if you are eating at home) or put in a to-go container (if you’re like me and bringing lunch to work).
Sometimes, I add chicken if there is any leftover chicken from supper the day before. You can also add in some walnuts, pecans, or sliced almonds, about 1/8 a cup. You can add anything you want to this salad, but all that I put today was strawberries, blueberries, romaine lettuce, spinach, and feta cheese. This even makes a really good side salad for a meal.
If you are someone that loves fruit and needs a quick go-to lunch then this is your salad! I use wine blush vinaigrette dressing. You can find that at your local grocery store.
I’ve tried many different dressing on a fruit salad, so I would really recommend using this as your dressing or some version of this such as a raspberry vinaigrette.
Also, make sure you measure the salad dressing. Dressing can make a salad taste really good, but it can also add in a lot of calories. This dressing has 160 calories per 2 Tbsp. When you put the dressing on make sure you mix your salad together well and don’t add any extra dressing. All of that dressing has just sunk to the bottom and you’ll be making something healthy with not too many calories into something that has a lot of calories from the dressing.
So to make this salad, get your chopping board out. You need a stalk of romaine lettuce. Start at the top and chop until you reach the bottom (don’t go all the way to the bottom, but about 2 inches from the bottom). Place that on the plate and then top with 1 cup of spinach. Next, chop 7-8 strawberries into quarters. Measure 1/2 cup of blueberries and put on top of the salad. Sprinkle 2 Tbsp Feta Cheese on top and your salad is done! Top with 2 Tbsp dressing and enjoy this berry delicious salad.
