Strawberry Salad with Poppy Seed Dressing

This is our favorite spring salad! We will add fresh berries that are in season and in fall we will replace the berries with tart apples.  
Replacing storebought condiments is one of the easiest ways to eliminate flavor enhancers and seed oils in my family’s diet. This poppy seed dressing is creamy without dairy!
