I have to admit that I have never been a fan of spinach. Yet, at the same time, I am aware of the nutrients and health benefits these green leafy vegetables offer.

For that very reason, I had to find a solution to incorporate them into my diet and actually enjoy them. I found it one night when I was at a friend’s house for dinner.

That was the first time I really enjoyed eating spinach in a delicious dish named Strawberry Spinach Salad.

I immediately asked him to give me the recipe, and from that day on, not a week went by that I didn’t make this tasty and healthy salad at least once.
