Spinach Blueberry Salad with Honey Balsamic Dressing
INGREDIENTS
Salad
3-4 cups fresh baby spinach roughly chopped
1/2 cup toasted pumpkin seeds ( I toasted them in the toaster oven)

1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
Honey Balsamic Dressing
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp water
2 tbsp honey

If too sweet-you can cut the sweetness with a squeeze or two of lemon.

Toss all salad ingredients together.
Make the dressing: Add all dressing ingredients to a mason jar and, with the lid on TIGHT, shake well.
