I really enjoyed all of the comforting winter dishes I cooked this year.  But I’m ready for a change, and I’m so excited for all of the produce that summer has to offer!

This strawberry arugula salad is one of my favourite salads of all time…there is just so much flavor packed in there: sweet berries, peppery arugula, tangy balsamic, and salty feta.



Also a delicious array of textures: soft berries, crunchy almonds, creamy feta.
