Strawberry Feta Salad

The lettuce in my garden is struggling because of the heat.  We planted the seeds last fall and they came up early this spring.  We had lettuce really early on, so we have enjoyed mixed lettuce salad for a while now.  Strawberries are a really good price right now.  I am price matching them at Walmart from the Aldi ads.    This isn't really a recipe, just a combination of ingredients.  We usually have this salad for Easter.  We use a poppy seed salad dressing.  We made a garlic dressing for this salad.  This is a favorite in our family.


Strawberry Feta Salad
Mixture of lettuce leaves - Spring mix - washed, patted dry and torn into small pieces
Mixture of fresh basil, parsley, and chives - washed and torn into small pieces
Strawberries, hulled and sliced
Feta Cheese sprinkled on top.

We probably won't have many salads left from this year's lettuce patch, but oh this was a great way to end the season.  This would make a great salad for the 4th of July BBQ.
