I love spring and all the fresh produce that comes with it. I think that strawberries technically are a summer season fruit, but I’ve been seeing them at the grocery store, so I will take it! This salad has been my “go-to” on my SAHM days. It’s SO fast and easy to throw together; without sacrificing being refreshing and good for you.
I don’t always have as much energy as I want and I don’t know if I’ve ever needed so much energy as when I’m doing the SAHM thing. It’s common knowledge that your energy levels are directly correlated to your diet. This tid-bit of knowledge provides a game changing mom-hack. When I switched my diet out to clean eating, the biggest improvement was my energy levels! I can run around and play with my daughter like I couldn’t before! I’m not insisting that everyone eat clean, but I want to share the benefits I saw, because they made a positive difference in my family! When I changed my diet, what was more exciting then any weight loss, was the energy and how it balanced my moods. I’m not perfect at clean eating (balance in everything), but I notice the benefits when I’m more consistent with it. Plus, my daughter usually likes having some strawberries, goat cheese and almond slivers when I make this, so it works for both of us! Happy Spring!

I always love salads like this – yum!
Me too! Thanks for stopping by Alexandra!
Yum! I need to remember how much I love fruit on salads! I’m always excited to see salads at restaurants that have fruit on it but for some reason never think of it for the salads I make at home!
I totally understand! There are a lot of things at restaurants that I think I could make at home, but it doesn’t really occur to me to actually make it, haha. Thanks for stopping by Katie!
Can’t wait to give it a try! It will go perfect with my clean diet I am doing right now! Love your ideas!
Thanks Gretchen! Good luck with your clean diet!
Thanks for sharing the recipe, this looks yummy!!!
Thanks Tineke!
This salad looks super yummy and healthy! I love it. I make a variation of it with candied pecans, instead of almonds, which is not so healthy, lol. I will have to try this way.
Candied pecans sound delicious!
This looks DELICIOUS!!
Thanks Kelsey!
I am not a salad kinda girl but this looks yummy! I like to have salad for guests so I will have to make this!
That’s a great idea! Let me know how it turns out. 🙂
