Method
 

  1. Choose 2–3 sides that balance the strawberry spinach salad with protein, starch, and vegetable elements.
  2. Start cooking the longest-prep sides first, such as wild rice or roasted vegetables, and finish with quick sides like creamy cucumber salad last.
  3. Plate the salad with your chosen sides and add any sauces or garnishes like strawberry balsamic reduction as desired.

Notes

Start the starchy or protein side first and add a fresh vegetable side last to avoid mushy textures and keep the plate balanced and flavorful.
