Strawberry & Feta Salad

Strawberry & Feta Salad

Juicy strawberries, creamy feta and toasted almonds turn an everyday green salad into a summer side with proven heart‑smart perks. In a recent randomised trial, older adults who ate strawberries every day trimmed a few points off their systolic blood pressure and boosted blood‑antioxidant status. Regular almond snacks have likewise cut LDL cholesterol while keeping protective HDL steady in controlled studies.

Tumbled with crisp romaine and a raspberry, balsamic vinaigrette loosened with a splash of water, the mix hits that sweet‑savory balance, perfect for any cook‑out or pot‑luck.
