Ingredients
1½ cups strawberries, hulled and halved
1½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
¼ cup apple juice
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1½ cups shelled edamame
1 (15-ounce) can low-sodium white beans, drained and rinsed
½ cup red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
6 cups fresh baby spinach
Directions
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add edamame and cook according to package directions, usually 5–8 minutes, until tender. While the edamame cooks, prepare all remaining ingredients by chopping the strawberries, red onion, and basil, and draining and rinsing the white beans.
Transfer the cooked edamame to a colander and rinse under cool running water until completely cooled. Drain well and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the strawberries, extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, apple juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set the vinaigrette aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooled edamame, drained white beans, chopped red onion, fresh basil, and crumbled feta cheese. Gently toss to mix evenly.
Divide the fresh baby spinach among four serving plates, creating a bed on each plate. Top each spinach bed with an equal portion of the edamame and white bean mixture.
Drizzle the strawberry-balsamic vinaigrette over each salad, dividing it equally among the plates. Serve immediately while the greens are fresh and crisp.
Comments
All ingredients are stocked at Charlotte's major chains—even frozen edamame is standard at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger. Cost per serving runs around $2.50 to $3.00, driven by the feta and fresh strawberries, but white beans and edamame keep it reasonable; strawberry season in spring and early summer makes this especially budget-friendly then. The 23-minute time is honest—little knife work, no cooking. It reheats unevenly because of the greens, making it a same-night dish best served fresh, and it needs a confident hand with the dressing to avoid sogginess if sitting for hours.
