Place Dressing ingredients in a jar and shake well. Set aside for 10 minutes+ (keeps for a week).

Place butter and sugar in a non-stick skillet over medium high. When butter is melted, add nuts.

Stir 5 minutes - sugar will go sandy, then eventually melt into a caramel.

Once sugar melts, cook for 2 minutes then spread pecans out on tray.

Cool then break to separate.

Place spinach and onion in a bowl, drizzle with about 3 tbsp Dressing, toss.

Transfer 1/3 spinach in a bowl. Scatter over 1/3 of each strawberries, avocado, feta, pecans. Drizzle with a bit of dressing.

Top with another 1/3 spinach, strawberries, avocado, feta, pecans, then a bit more Dressing. Repeat once more.

Serve immediately!
