Yummy tasting salad. The dressing matches all the ingredients in the salad exceptionally well. Used feta instead of goat cheese as well as using arugula because that's what I had on hand. Also added thinly sliced red onion because my husband enjoys it that way. All in the family really enjoyed this salad and it's a do again, especially perfect for Spring and Summer! Thank you Teresa for sharing!

A very delicious salad and just in time for strawberry season (although they are available year round). Makes a very pretty presentation. The only change I made to the salad itself was to eliminate the cucumber. The dressing was really delish -- I did use less basil and I lessened the amount of oil and sugar a tiny bit.
