After thinking about creating this salad for some time, one spring I used my homegrown strawberries and fresh tarragon to do a little experimenting. It didn't take me very long to come up with a winner! My husband enjoyed my creation as much as I did, and now we can't wait for strawberry season to come around each year. —Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

2 tablespoons chopped sweet onion

Test Kitchen tips

This salad is better when made ahead of time so the flavors can blend. But don't add the strawberries until you're ready to serve, as they tend to turn the salad pink when they sit.

Try piling this salad onto a couple of slices of hearty whole grain bread for a sandwich your co-workers will drool over.
