Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 box baby spinach (11oz / 312g)
- 1 small box fresh blueberries (6oz / 170g)
- 1 cup crumbled feta (150g)
For the lemon dressing
- zest and juice of 1 lemon
- large pinch black pepper (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Add the baby spinach, blueberries and crumbled feta to a large salad bowl. Place to one side.
- Mix the ingredients for the lemon dressing together in a sperate bowl.
- When ready to serve, pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together.
Notes
- Wash and dry the spinach well before using.
- Use an unwaxed lemon, or wash well with warm water before zesting it.
- For the best results, use a fresh block of feta and crumble it. Ready bought crumbled feta can be drier and have less flavor, though it's still tasty and is less messy and quicker!
