As a replacement, you can use kale, romaine lettuce, or arugula.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>PECANS:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>These pecans will provide a buttery taste and nutritious fats to this salad. Substitute them with hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, walnuts, or almonds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>FETA CHEESE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>We use feta cheese, which will create a silky texture and give a savory flavor. As an alternative, we can use shredded mozzarella, goat cheese, or blue cheese.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>BALSAMIC GLAZE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Balsamic glaze delivers a tarty flavor and rich texture for this spinach salad. Swap it with a mix of apple cider vinegar with a keto sweetener or reduced balsamic vinegar.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>OLIVE OIL:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>You may utilize olive oil, as it will enrich the flavors and make this salad flavorful. In place of it, use MCT, Avocado, or walnut oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>DIJON MUSTARD:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Use Dijon mustard to provide a deep and strong flavor for this side dish. We can switch it out with yellow, Whole grain, or spicy brown mustard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"612aec68119cedffa0a819900e9968d9\" data-index=\"5\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"612aec68119cedffa0a819900e9968d9\" data-index=\"2\"><\/div>\n<h3>INSTRUCTIONS:<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>We slowly heat the pan and toast the pecans till aromatic, for about five minutes, and then cool them.<\/li>\n<li>Properly rinse and dry the spinach and put it in a dish.<\/li>\n<li>Include crumbled feta cheese, sliced strawberries, toasted pecans, and blueberries in a spinach salad.<\/li>\n<li>Stir the apple cider vinegar, pepper, olive oil, Dijon mustard, balsamic glaze, and salt in a dish.<\/li>\n<li>Spread the dressing on the salad and carefully mix it till all the elements are uniformly coated.<\/li>\n<li>Put it in a serving vessel and then eat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>TIPS:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>We utilize refrigerated components to get a fresh taste.<\/li>\n<li>Always put the dressing in first and then serve to avoid soggy greens.<\/li>\n<li>Adjust the amount of berry for a balanced sweet taste.<\/li>\n<li>You can use toasted nuts, which improves the flavors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>SERVING SUGGESTIONS:<\/h3>\n<h4>PROTEINS:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Grilled Chicken<\/li>\n<li>Garlic Butter Shrimp<\/li>\n<li>Seared Salmon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>SIDE DISH:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Keto Steak<\/li>\n<li>Roasted Chicken<\/li>\n<li>Grilled Lamb<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>LUNCHES:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Avocado<\/li>\n<li>Egg Salad<\/li>\n<li>Tuna Salad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>STORAGE INFORMATION:<\/h3>\n<h4>FRIDGE:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Put this undressed salad in a tight box and stock it for just 2 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>FREEZER:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>We do not suggest storing this spinach salad because the berries and fresh greens will lose their texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>FAQs:<\/h3>\n<h4>May I prepare this spinach salad earlier?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Yes, you can make this spinach salad earlier because it chills perfectly for only two days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Can I include proteins?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Yes, you can use tofu, eggs, or chicken.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Will I include frozen berries?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Yes, you can use the frozen berries, although defrost them first.
