Spinach, raspberries, candied pecans, and a tangy vinaigrette—fast and pretty.
Avo's Tip
Add the dressing right before serving to keep the spinach crisp.
No raspberries? Strawberries, blackberries, or sliced peaches in season all work.
No spinach? Arugula adds a peppery bite; spring mix is the mildest swap.
No feta? Goat cheese or shaved parmesan both complement the berries.
