Ingredients

1/4 cup dried cranberries

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Wash the baby spinach thoroughly and dry it using a salad spinner. Slice the peaches, crumble the goat cheese, and thinly slice the red onion. Toast the pecans in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until fragrant and slightly browned. Be sure to stir frequently to prevent burning.

    Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

      Assemble the Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the fresh spinach, sliced peaches, sliced red onion, toasted pecans, dried cranberries, and crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving.

        Toss and Serve: Gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients and coat them evenly with the dressing. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the fruits and the creaminess of the goat cheese.
