Spring meets summer in this beautiful salad with seasonal ingredients and a sweet homemade dressing.

Sweet strawberries, crispy pea shoots and this creamy poppy seed dressing are a match made in heaven. It’s even better knowing that you’ve used locally grown ingredients and made your own dressing. Here is what you’ll need for the salad:

  • Sunchoke Farms Salad Mix

  • Sunchoke Farms Pea Shoots, chopped

  • Fresh, local strawberries

  • Pecans (optional)

  • Homemade Poppy Seed Dressing (Recipe Follows)

Homemade Poppy Seed Dressing:

Mix together with a whisk, immersion blender, or in a blender:

1/2 cup avocado oil

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

Up to 1/4 cup granulated sugar (to taste)

1 teaspoon dijon

2 teaspoons poppy seeds

*Special Thank you to Vegetable Share member, Kelsey, for the dressing suggestion!

Build your salad, drizzle with dressing, and enjoy…. maybe with a glass of iced tea.
