*Showstopper* Summer Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

True Joy & GlowLeave a comment

One of the best things about summer is the gorgeous array of fresh fruit that is perfectly ripe and ready to be enjoyed! I love finding different ways to use all the delicious fruit while it’s in season. Lately I’ve had a craving for Panera’s strawberry salad with poppy seed dressing. I haven’t had it in yearssss, so it was a random yet particular craving. At the farmer’s market, I had just picked up some lovely nectarines and strawberries so I thought I’d try to feed my craving and make a salad using all the summer fruit I love! My Showstopper Summer Salad is a striking blend of spinach, strawberries, blueberries, nectarines, mandarin oranges, red onions, and honey roasted pistachios drizzled with a rich and creamy poppy seed dressing. All the delicious flavors of summer in one quick and easy salad!

Waking up early and the sun already shining bright makes me crave to just pack the kiddos in the car and head to the beach. Unfortunately, we are currently not living even close to any ocean, so I’m just going to have to pretend I’m at the beach instead. My Pineapple Coconut Overnight Oats are a delicious combination of rich and creamy coconut milk oats, shredded coconut, vibrant pineapple, and topped with crisp toasted coconut that will make any morning feel like you’re waking up on a tropical beach!
