A few days ago we had some guests over for dinner; as usual my husband was in charge of barbecuing the meat, while I prepared the side dish, a dessert and a salad. Since strawberries are in season, I almost always have some on hand. I keep them frozen and ready for a morning smoothie or for a quick dessert with cream. On this occasion, I decided to try them with spinach for a fresh twist on a classic salad. MORE + LESS -
