Spinach Strawberry Pecan Salad

After a little break, I am back with this super delicious and colorful Spinach Strawberry Pecan Salad with Summer Stone Fruit.

I had a week of doing nothing related to Whole Food Bellies, and it was lovely. Sometimes if you get into a bit of a slump with something, stepping away, and getting some fresh perspective is the best thing to do.

I had the most relaxing week, and it really feels like summer now.

There was lots of swimming, lots of early morning walks with the kids to beat the afternoon heat, and waaaay too much ice-cream.

Just what summer should be all about!

Ingredients For This Fresh Summer Salad

Let’s eat the rainbow with this deliciously fresh and vibrant salad!

I am in love with this salad, and I seriously think it is just about one of the prettiest salads I have ever seen.

It is just loaded with everything you can find at the farmers market right now:

• heirloom tomatoes,
• radishes,
• summer fruit,
• cucumber,
• bell peppers,
• spinach,
• and a good helping of nuts and seeds to fill up those bellies.

The dressing is really simple as well, so although it may look like a show-stopper, it really is as easy as chopping up your produce and layering it on a platter.

My kind of salad.
