Spring Salad with Raspberries, Dates & Goat Cheese

Spring Salad

With spring comes the desire to eat healthier and maybe for some, eat a bit less. Combining those desires with the urge to save on my lunches, I decided to make up a salad to bring for work this week.

If you’re planning on taking this for lunch place the red onion in a baggie and top right before you eat. This keeps the onion from overpowering the salad.
