The importance of using seasonal ingredients cannot be overstated, particularly in a dish like Strawberry Spinach Balsamic Cones. Fresh spinach and strawberries are at their peak during the warmer months, offering superior flavor and texture compared to their out-of-season counterparts. Spinach, a leafy green packed with nutrients, is not only rich in vitamins A, C, and K, but also boasts a wealth of antioxidants. Meanwhile, strawberries, with their juicy sweetness, provide a refreshing contrast to the earthiness of spinach. Together, they create a harmonious blend that is as visually appealing as it is delicious.

Prepare the Spinach: In a mixing bowl, toss the fresh spinach leaves with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Ensure the leaves are well-coated for flavor.

    Combine Ingredients: In a separate bowl, gently mix the sliced strawberries, crumbled feta cheese, and toasted walnuts until evenly distributed.

          Drizzle with Balsamic: Just before serving, drizzle a generous amount of balsamic glaze over the top of the filled cones for added flavor and decoration.

            Garnish: If desired, add a fresh mint leaf on top of each cone for an extra touch of freshness and presentation.

              Serve: Place the cones upright in a small cup or holder for easy serving. Enjoy these delightful Strawberry Spinach Balsamic Cones as an appetizer or a light meal!
