How To Make summer's best strawberry salad

  • 1
    For the salad, add your fresh greens to your salad bowl. You can make this as one big salad or individual ones. I roughly chop the strawberry's and add to the greens. Sprinkle with blue cheese.
  • 2
    For the candied walnuts, place the brown sugar in a sauté pan, slowly melt the sugar and add water. Once sugar melted add the walnuts (you can also use almonds) and sauté for a minute or so. Then remove from heat. Top your salad with these. FYI, if they sit they will harden.
  • 3
    For the strawberry vinaigrette, add all ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Pour desired amount over salad and toss.
