strawberry, feta, and avocado salad

Mixing fruit into savory salads can be pretty divisive, can’t it? But actually, it’s the combination of sweet strawberries, salty feta, and creamy avocado that makes this salad so delicious. It’s got chunks of sweet potato to make it hearty and fresh tomatoes because well what’s a summer salad without tomatoes!? If you’re yet to be convinced that fruit belongs in salads then this could be the recipe to convert you…

Ingredients
(serves 3)
400g sweet potato, cut into chunks
3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 small avocado, sliced
15 mixed color cherry tomatoes, halved

Pinch of salt
Pinch of pepper
1 tbsp of white wine vinegar

2️⃣ Meanwhile prepare the lime vinaigrette by combining the lime juice and zest with the remaining olive oil, white wine vinegar, and maple syrup. Season with salt and pepper and combine.
3️⃣ Once the sweet potato chunks are cooked combine in a bowl with the sliced red onion, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and strawberries.
4️⃣ Line the lunchboxes with spinach and then top with the sweet potato mix.
