Kiwi and Strawberry Spinach Salad

Valentina

A fruity combination of strawberries, kiwis, spinach, and pumpkin seeds in a simple balsamic vinaigrette. Nerd alert: spinach and pumpkin seeds are great plant-based sources of iron. It's been shown that iron is better absorbed when consumed alongside vitamin C, such as that found in the strawberries and kiwis in this recipe.

Recipe Notes

Note 1: Aim to use a good quality, syrupy balsamic vinegar here. Consider balsamic vinegar like a bottle of wine - the flavor ranges can be huge, and it's the type of ingredient that's worth spending a little extra on.
