Blueberry Pecan Salad
I have been somewhat obsessed with putting fruit in my salads for some time now. And I don't mean a "fruit salad". But instead taking my regular concoctions of greens and veggies and tossing some fresh berries or sliced apples in the mix.
This particular salad highlights blueberries and pecans. Which, I know, seem to be ingredients you are more likely to find on a bowl of oatmeal than a salad. But if you give this salad a chance, you will be delighted by the way the blueberries burst in each green engulfed bite. And the unlikely ingredients mix together in a medley of flavor.
Not mention, those blueberries in each bite are full of wonderful antioxidants, and all those nutty pecans are sure to keep you full with their fiber.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 cup arugula
- 1 cup green leaf lettuce
- 2 radishes, sliced thinly
- 1/2 cup blueberries, rinsed
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup diced cucumber
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta
Toss all ingredients together in a large bowl and enjoy. Top with pan fried tofu if desired.
This salad goes great with a citrus vinaigrette dressing or honey balsamic dressing.
Full of nutrients and healthy food. The recipe is looking so simple.
This is look so healthy and delicious dear. Good dish.

That looks and sounds delicious. I rarely put fruit in salads at home but I alway enjoy it when I go out for dinner somewhere and the host does it. I dont think I've tried the blueberry pecan combination. That sounds like a good pairing.
One of my favorite salads is an apple gorgonzola with a pear dressing. It is delicious. Cheers @pinkspectre.
Blueberry and pecan! Sounds amazing. I'll have to try this. I love salads but mine are often boring. This looks like a good way to spice things up.
