I like baby spinach with sliced strawberries (or dried cranberries) walnuts or almonds, and grilled chicken, with a raspberry vinigrette dressing.

Answer 2

So much is in season now, it's hard to know where to start.
Start with your basic greens, baby spinach or mixed greens.
Many combinations of fruit & nuts will work:
Mandarin orange slices with slivered almonds.
Dried cranberries with walnut or pecan pieces.
Strawberries, mango pieces, & sunflower seeds.
You could also set it up like a small salad bar.
People could choose their own combinations.
Have croutons, & a variety of cheeses too.
