My husband and I have been trying to eat healthier as part of our Six Sisters’ Strong Challenge, but I have the hardest time eating salad! I love just about anything with balsamic vinegar so I thought I would throw together a salad with a few of my favorite ingredients in hopes that I would make a salad my family would love. This salad was so easy to make and tasted amazing!

- For the salad:
- 1 bag spring salad mix
- 2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup blackberries
- Feta cheese crumbles, as desired
- For the candied pecans:
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- ¼ cup sugar
- For the dressing:
- ½ cup strawberry jam
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- For the salad:
- Toss together spring salad mix, sliced strawberries and blackberries. Add some feta cheese for garnish (as much or little as you like).
- For the candied pecans:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together chopped pecans and sugar. Stir constantly for a few minutes until the sugar has caramelized and all of the pecans are coated. Spread the coated pecans on a piece of foil or wax paper to cool. After they are completely cool, break into pieces if they get clumped together. Add cooled pecans to salad and toss.
- For the dressing:
- Whisk together strawberry jam, balsamic vinegar and oil oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
