This strawberry spinach salad is one of my favorite ways to enjoy fresh strawberries. Look for glazed pecans in the produce section of your supermarket. If you don't care for baby spinach, you can always substitute romaine lettuce, but trust me, the sweetness of the nuts, strawberries and dressing really balances out the slight bitterness of the spinach.
