Strawberry Salad Tart. Celebrate spring with this savory and fresh spinach and strawberry tart! Using puff pastry makes this tart so easy to make and delicious! 

These days I’ve been going to the grocery store every day. This working from home thing has me spoiled.  And because I’m alone, the kids are at school. .  grocery shopping is peaceful and enjoyable. And here’s a tip for you! Write out your grocery list based on the different sections in the store. For example, I always start in produce, to go dairy and then get baking items and pantry staples like beans, dried pasta etc. This will save you so much time and help you shop so much more efficiently!

And if you’re one of those people who goes to the grocery store with no shopping list, I got nothing. On the very few occasions I do that, we always end up with items I shouldn’t have purchased and I make ghetto spaghetti for dinner.

I’m using puff pastry again because it’s magical and Mother’s Day is Sunday. Your kids could make a tart with puff pastry! It’s so easy to work with! A reader left a comment after I posted Strawberry Salad Tart. Celebrate spring with this savory and fresh spinach and strawberry tart! Using puff pastry makes this tart so easy to make and delicious!

I use a pizza cutter to cut it and it’s quite simple actually. As long as you have a napkin, I think you’re fine. Yes, it’s flakey but it’s puff pastry! Even my Madeline can eat this and manage to not make a complete mess.

The beauty of puff pastry is that you can use it for both sweet and savory. I was totally going to make a sweet dessert tart today using either mascarpone (mixed with honey), or cream cheese, or even Nutella as the base and then was going to top this baby with an assortment of berries.

But I had an entire case of fresh spinach and these beautiful Strawberry Salad Tart. Celebrate spring with this savory and fresh spinach and strawberry tart! Using puff pastry makes this tart so easy to make and delicious!

I’m pretty good about portion control but after making and photographing this, I ate 3 pieces! SO GOOD!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful, wonderful mothers out there! Has anyone else Strawberry Salad Tart. Celebrate spring with this savory and fresh spinach and strawberry tart! Using puff pastry makes this tart so easy to make and delicious!

Strawberry Salad Tart

Yes, I put dijon mustard on here. Try it! So good!
Prep Time5 minutes mins
Cook Time30 minutes mins
Total Time35 minutes mins
Course: Appetizer or Main
Servings: 6
Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

  • one sheet frozen puff pastry defrosted
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 heaping cup shredded mozzarella and provolone cheese blend + more cheese if desired
  • 1 to 2 cups fresh spinach + a handful more
  • 1/2 cup mache rosettes
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • hemp seeds
  • balsamic glaze

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Working on a well-floured work surface, roll out the defrosted puff pastry sheet into about a 16" x 10" rectangle, or a large square, whatever you want. Transfer to a lined baking sheet and, using a sharp knife, lightly score the pastry dough 1 inch in from the edges all around to mark a rectangle. Then, using a fork, pierce the dough all around in the center, (not the edges). Bake the pastry dough until golden, for about 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove the pastry shell from the oven, let it sit for few minutes, pressing down the slightly puffed up tart if needed with a spoon and then spread on the dijon mustard, sprinkle on the shredded cheese to cover the top and then top with the fresh spinach.
  • Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the spinach is nicely wilted. Remove from oven and let cool for just a few minutes. Top with more fresh spinach and the mache rosettes and strawberries. Sprinkle on hemp seeds and drizzle on some balsamic glaze. Slice and serve while warm. Enjoy!

    Love this tart, Alice! I make one with ricotta and tomatoes. I LOVE working with puff pastry. It’s the best, in my opinion, and makes for an easy and delicious dish. I don’t blame you one bit for eating 3 pieces….it looks so darn good!! I would have done the same (or more, lol). Great grocery list tip. Usually, I’m all over the store. I’ll have to remember that one;) Pinning and making soon. Thanks for sharing a scrumptious recipe and have yourself a beautiful and relaxing Mother’s Day!

    I always try to go to the store with a list, but sometimes I fail and come out with SO many things I don’t need! This is perfect and I love the tart/salad combo 🙂

    People who hate on puff pastry have gotta step back. It’s the best thing in the world. I use it for SO much. And it’s always heavenly, just like this tart!
    Man, I wish I could hit up the grocery store every day. I just wind up texting lists to my husband and hoping he gets the right thing (which happens very occasionally). But in the summer, I can do that and it’s great.
    As for the spaghetti? Yeah. That’s happening tonight. No regrets. 🙂

    I always write my grocery list in order of isles, from front-left of the store to back right of the store. My husbands makes fun of me and calls me a beautiful mind… I’m glad I’m not the only one who does it!! And I have been adding strawberries to ALL the things recently, so this tart is totally calling my name! LOVE it! Cheers, Alice!

    What kind/brand of puff pastry do you use? Every brand I’ve come across in the frozen section has partially hydrogenated oils and other garbage.

      Lindsey, buy Dufour!!!! it’s all butter and none of that other crap. . it does cost triple the amount, like $10-$11 but worth it!!!! I only have Dufour and Pep. Farm at my grocery store.
