Ingredients

1 servings
  • SALAD INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach or spring mix
  • 6 fresh strawberries (sliced)
  • 8 -10 fresh blackberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugared pecans (recipe below)
  • Creamy Poppyseed Dressing
  • PECAN INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1/2 cups pecan halves
  • 1/4 cup white sugar

Steps

  1. TO MAKE THE SALAD:

  2. Layer spinach and berries into bowl and sprinkle with pecans. Drizzle with poppyseed dressing and toss to coat. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

  3. TO MAKE THE PECANS:

  4. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pecans and stir to coat well. Saute the pecans until they are fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar and continue stirring as the sugar melts and coats the nuts, about 5 minutes.

  5. After the sugar has caramelized and the nuts have turned a slightly deeper brown, remove from the heat and immediately spread the pecans on a piece of parchment paper. Let them cool and then store in an airtight container until ready to use. Enjoy!
