    This Spinach Berry Power Salad will be in regular rotation this summer.  It's loaded with berries, spinach and quinoa to fuel your adventures.  {gluten free}

    This is the only way to eat when the weather is unbearably hot.  Fresh, summer salads with seasonal ingredients are easy to prep and don't heat up the kitchen.  

    These raspberries and blueberries are fresh from my local farmer's market and full of flavor. When they are added to spinach with a light lemony dressing they are the perfect lunch or dinner for any day of the week.

    How Do You Make a Summer Berry Power Salad?

    blueberries → anti-aging superstars

    almonds → protein and fiber bombs

    spinach → nutrient dense

    raspberries → full of antioxidents

    quinoa → a complete protein

    How can a salad so full of goodness taste so good?  Trust me, it does.  You'll want to try this one.

    Spinach berry power salad with berries with a spoon

    This was inspired by my old standby spinach, strawberry and feta salad.  I made a few changes by adding two types of berries, quinoa and goat cheese.  Feta would work just as well here.  

    If you plan to make this ahead and pack it for a night at the pool, do not add the dressing and keep the berries separate until the last minute.  The berries can get a bit mushy when mixed up.

    The dressing is so easy and delicious you can double it and have dressing for other salads throughout the week.  Store it in the fridge in a Mason jar and it should stay fresh for up to five days.

    So go embrace these super ☀️hot days☀️ and enjoy the summer before it slips by us.
