How to Make a Strawberry Salad
Strawberry salads are always so pretty with the red and green contrast. I also like to add cut up string cheese and some bacon bits for a slight crunch.
I use string cheese mozzarella for this salad. The look of the string cheese cut up in the salad is a great look and it is something we usually have on hand. Also, if strawberries aren't your jam (pun intended), feel free to substitute another fruit that is in season. But, it is particularly delicious with strawberries or raspberries.
If you want to turn it into a main course meal, one option is to add sliced, cooked chicken breasts. The red onion vinaigrette is especially delicious over meats.
In conclusion, red onion vinaigrette and a strawberry salad is a unique and flavorful combination that can be used to elevate any meal. Served as a starter, side, or main dish, this refreshing combination of sweet and tart can evoke a sense of delight in even the pickiest of eaters.
