After sharing the Kale and Blackberry Salad in May, a friend of a friend made a version that included raspberries. Those pretty red berries got me to thinking… how could I make a red, white and blue salad?

So I played around, and just in time for Independence Day, here it is! Starting with a base of spinach, you’ll layer on strawberries, blueberries and feta, then toss them with a simple lemon juice based dressing (you might recognize the flavor from the blackberry salad.) A yummy and light addition to your patriotic celebration!

This Patriotic Salad is a light and fresh addition to your patriotic celebration! With a spinach base, and strawberries, blueberries and feta providing color, the salad is tied together with a light lemon dressing. This is an S for a #trimhealthymama. blossomsandposies.com
