Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup granola (for that irresistible crunch)
- ½ cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- ¼ cup shredded coconut (optional, for extra flavor)
- ¼ cup honey or agave syrup
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon champagne vinaigrette (for tanginess)
- Mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Start by washing the fresh strawberries thoroughly. Hull and slice them into halves or quarters, depending on your preferred size. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey or agave syrup, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and champagne vinaigrette. This tangy dressing adds a burst of flavor that complements the sweetness of the strawberries.
- Pour the dressing over the sliced strawberries and gently toss to coat evenly. Add the crunchy granola, chopped nuts, and shredded coconut, mixing lightly to distribute the textures evenly.
- Transfer the salad to serving bowls or plates. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, crunchy, and juicy combination.
Notes
- For the best crunch, serve immediately after mixing.
- If you need to store leftovers, keep the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. Add granola just before serving if storing for longer periods to maintain its crunch.
- Feel free to customize toppings with diced mango, blueberries, or other fresh fruits for variety.
