Tasty Tuesday

This salad was awesome.  Make it, soon!


Strawberry Balsamic Reduction


1 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup chopped strawberries
1/4 cup sugar

Combine ingredients in a small saucepan.  Bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium.  Cook until it is reduced by a third and thickened.

Glazed Pecans 


1/2 cup chopped pecans (or almonds)
2 TB sugar


Combine ingredients in small skillet.  Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar melts (about 5 minutes).  Let cool on waxed paper.


For the salad:
Toss together...
Spinach
Sliced Strawberries
Feta or Blue Cheese or Gorgonzola
Glazed pecans
Strawberry balsamic reduction

If you want to make it a meal, throw in some grilled chicken.  I think it would also taste great using blueberries in place of the strawberries.
