The crowd favorite! Loaded with baby spinach, fresh strawberries, juicy, tender chicken thighs + the dreamiest poppy seed dressing!
Say hello to my favorite part of summer: all the vibrant, beautiful, colorful salads.
With juicy, grilled chicken thighs seasoned with some salt and pepper, this makes for a hearty meal for any time of the day.
Serve with fresh strawberries for that natural sweetness and pecan halves for that extra crunch. Sometimes I even throw in candied pecans for that extra treat! SO SO GOOD.
And the poppy seed dressing is seriously so creamy, so dreamy.
