# How to Make:
01 - In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and cool completely.
02 - In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, and sea salt until well combined.
03 - In a large salad bowl, combine arugula, strawberries, and red onion slices.
04 - Drizzle the olive oil and lemon dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat evenly.
05 - Add crumbled goat cheese and toasted pecans or walnuts. Toss lightly or arrange toppings neatly for presentation.
06 - Drizzle cooled balsamic glaze over the salad just before serving. Finish with freshly ground black pepper.
