Strawberry Fields Salad is a delightful mix of sweet and tangy flavours, combining fresh strawberries, blueberries, and crisp cucumber with a bed of spinach or your preferred greens. A simple dressing of lime or lemon juice, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar adds a zesty balance, while mint leaves provide a refreshing burst of flavour.
