I love raspberries. Actually berries of any kind. My favorite way to eat them is fresh, right out of the basket — with breakfast, as a snack, or as a simple dessert. It’s no surprise that I always have berries in the refrigerator. So I was thrilled to partner with Whole Foods Market and Driscoll’s to bring you this quick and healthy recipe.
Turkey and raspberry salad with walnut vinaigrette is a nice change from all the heavy dishes this time of year. And a great way to use leftover turkey. Fresh raspberries make a perfect addition to this salad, and pair nicely with the walnuts and avocado.
I like this salad for lunch or a light dinner. It’s so quick and easy to put together.
