Red White and Blue Salad
Servings 4 servings
Calories 344kcal
Ingredients
For the salad:
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
- 1 cup blueberries
- ½ - ¾ cup feta cheese for dairy free sub almond slivers
- 4-5 strips cooked uncured bacon cut into strips
- 4 cups mixed dark greens
For Red Wine Vinaigrette Dressing:
- 3 T maple syrup
- 2 T red wine vinegar
- 1 T lemon juice
- ¼ cup avocado or olive oil
Instructions
- To make salad layer greens with rows of strawberries, blueberries, feta, and bacon.
- To make dressing, combine maple syrup, red wine vinegar, and lemon juice in a blender. Blend for 10 seconds. While the blender is running on low, you SLOWLY add oil. It should take you 30 seconds or more to add all of the oil. (Can also be done with an immersion blender.) Or, hand mixing is fine too, it just won't be quite as incorporated.
- Pour the desired amount of dressing over the salad and toss until all the greens are covered with dressing.
Notes
The dressing will keep 1-2 days in the fridge!
