A quick and very simple recipe I pulled together with what I had on hand! I was super excited to make this salad because it was from the first harvest of the red leaf lettuce from my garden! I wish I could have added feta cheese which is why it is listed in the ingredients, but you do not see it in the photos. This photo was taken during the pandemic, and I couldn’t find feta cheese in the store, but I highly suggest adding it to the salad if you can find it!
My mother and I ate this with my Fresh Mint Dressing, and it was so delicious! If you haven’t tried my Fresh Mint Dressing recipe yet, give it a try it is so refreshing and will pair perfectly with the strawberries and feta!
