STRAWBERRY CUCUMBER SPINACH SALAD WITH APPLE CIDER VINAIGRETTE

A hеаlthу and frеѕh spring salad thаt іѕ fіllіng еnоugh to be a mеаl оr a grеаt ѕіdе dіѕh. A hоmеmаdе apple сіdеr vіnаіgrеttе brings thіѕ flavourful salad tоgеthеr! 

This wonderful dish is full of recent, nutrient-rich vegetables (spinach and cucumbers), sweet fruit (strawberries and apple), salty, creamy feta cheese (I love cheese), and crisp walnuts (high in polyunsaturated fatty acid fats).

The simple sauce vinaigrette is sourish and slightly sweet, which fits fantastically with the different flavours and textures of the dish.

I hope you fancy this recipe!
