This amazing strawberry orange spinach salad with chicken is perfect as a side dish to your meal, or as a nice addition to any party.

Fresh fruits, chicken and nuts on a bed of spinach with a drizzle of balsamic dressing is a super-delicious combination everyone will love.

I am not much of an adventurer when it comes to combining fruits and veggies into a salad, however, after trying out this recipe I instantly fell in love with its exotic flavors. Now, it’s regularly on my table whenever I am in the mood for something rainbowy-looking, refreshing and tasty.

Of course, you don’t have to follow the exact recipe, you can add your own variations. Here are some suggestions that I have tried and work just as well as the original recipe:

  • Bacon
  • Feta cheese
  • Goat cheese
  • Blueberries
  • Blackberries
  • Red onions
  • Walnuts
  • Pecans
  • Avocados

For the dressing, ranch works perfectly well for this salad as well.
