Summer Berry Salad with Tumeric Chicken
Prep Time
5 minutes
Prep Notes
Yesterday, we took our kids to the local farmers market and I was blown away by all the variety of fruits and vegetables we had available this season. Summer is of course the best season for fruit, especially berries, and I could not resist getting some fresh strawberries and blackberries that inspired today’s salad. Using spinach as my green and topping the salad with a tumeric infused chicken breast, fresh avocado and feta cheese this salad hits every tastebud you can imagine and is light and refreshing.
