- 1/3 cup of raw walnuts or slivered almonds
- 1/3 cup of crumbled goat feta or goat cheese

- 1/2 cup good quality balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon tamari sauce gluten-free soy sauce
- 1/4 cup raw honey
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
- Prepare the Vinaigrette: In a small bowl or a jar with a lid, combine the balsamic vinegar, tamari sauce, raw honey, and extra virgin olive oil. Whisk or shake well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Set the vinaigrette aside.
- Assemble the Salad: In a large salad bowl, add the fresh spinach leaves. Next, gently add the sliced strawberries and avocado cubes. Be careful when adding the avocado to avoid mashing it.
- Add the Nuts and Cheese: Sprinkle the raw walnuts or slivered almonds over the salad for a delightful crunch. Then, add the crumbled goat cheese, distributing it evenly over the top of the salad.
- Season with Sumac: If using sumac, sprinkle it over the salad. Sumac adds a tangy, slightly lemony flavor that enhances the overall taste of the dish.
- Dress the Salad: Just before serving, drizzle the prepared balsamic vinaigrette over the salad. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly with the dressing.
- Serve: Serve the Avocado Strawberry Spinach Salad immediately, garnished with additional nuts or cheese if desired. Enjoy it as a refreshing starter, a light main course, or a side dish to complement any meal.
