Recipe modified from: cookieandkate
Ingredients
  • Salad (no amounts given, you can eyeball this)
  • Arugula
  • Small nuts or seeds, toasted (pine nuts, sunflower seeds and sliced almonds are great)
  • Freshly grated Parmesan
  • Lemon vinaigrette (yields enough for 6 to 8 small side salads, leftovers will keep in the fridge for several weeks)
  • ΒΌ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (more to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • pinch sea salt
  • pinch freshly ground black pepper
  • Suggested variations
  • Sliced cherry tomatoes, avocado and sunflower seeds
  • Thinly sliced cucumbers, radishes and almonds
  • Thinly sliced fennel and pine nuts
Instructions
  1. Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl (or a jar with a watertight lid), whisk together (or shake) the ingredients until emulsified.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the arugula with a handful of toasted nuts and grated Parmesan (don't skimp). Add a drizzle of dressing and toss until the salad is lightly coated throughout. If desired, toss in the suggested add-ins. Serve immediately.
