Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

2 cups baby spinach leaves, thoroughly washed and dried

½ cup crumbled feta cheese

¼ cup balsamic glaze

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon honey

6-8 mini ice cream cones or small waffle cones

Pinch of salt and black pepper

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic glaze, extra virgin olive oil, honey, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix until the dressing is smooth and well incorporated. Set this aside to let the flavors blend beautifully.

    Assemble the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, add the sliced strawberries, baby spinach leaves, and crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle the prepared dressing over this mixture. Gently toss everything together using a large spoon or spatula until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

      Fill the Cones: Using a spoon, carefully fill each mini ice cream cone with a generous portion of the strawberry-spinach mixture. Make sure to distribute the strawberries, spinach, and feta evenly among the cones for a well-balanced bite.

        Final Touches: For an extra burst of flavor, drizzle a little more balsamic glaze on top of each filled cone. If desired, add a sprig of fresh mint leaves on each cone to enhance presentation and add a refreshing touch.

          Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the completed cones on a decorative platter and serve them immediately. They make for an exquisite appetizer or a light snack that’s perfect for any occasion.
