Wash strawberries, blueberries, spinach, and apple. Drain well.
Dressing:
Push a straw through the strawberries from the bottom tip to the green top to remove the hull, or cut it off with a knife. Discard hull. Add the remaining dressing ingredients; in a blender or food processor, blend until smooth; refrigerate.
Salad:
Cut strawberries, apple, and onion into slices.
Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl. When ready to serve, (and not before because spinach wilts easily) drizzle with desired amount of dressing; toss to coat.
Sprinkle crumbled Gorgonzola or Feta cheese on top. Serve.
4 servings.
