The Low Carb Diabetic: Triple Berry Summer Salad : An Old Favourite : So Delicious


I first came across this recipe idea in 2015, and I have mentioned it quite a few times on the blog! In fact I am sure there will be some readers who may have tried it, but if you haven’t, it’s highly recommended!

Some describe it as simply amazing, others as simply wonderful. This triple berry summer salad is both of those. Just have a read of the ingredients and your taste buds are already in action savouring the great taste. Make a note of the ingredients – go out and get them and then just make and enjoy this super summer salad.

Ingredients

Serves four
9oz baby spinach, torn
1 cup sliced strawberries
1 cup raspberries
1 cup blueberries
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1/3 cup chopped basil
1 avocado, chopped
4oz goat cheese

Directions
1. Divide baby spinach between plates then top with berries, almonds*, basil and chopped avocado. Crumble goat cheese on top then dress with salad dressing. You could use a strawberry balsamic vinegar, but any olive-oil based vinaigrette would be fantastic.
2. So easy and fabulously fresh, no-cook, and light …yet filling from the goat cheese and avocado. You could if you wish serve it with some grilled chicken breast marinated in some of that balsamic vinegar. Dear readers it’s entirely up to you.

*The easiest way to toast almonds is to spread them on a plate and microwave in thirty second increments until they’re golden brown. You could also do this in the oven, but sometimes you just don’t need the oven on!
