Simple Arugula Salad
Arugula salad is one of those ubiquitous salads that you’ve probably had before at a restaurant, or maybe someone served it at a dinner party. It’s pretty popular, and for good reason! It’s crazy simple to throw together and has a 4-ingredient dressing, and that’s why we can’t get enough of it.
Another bonus? It’s one of those salads that’s a wonderful base to throw in your favorite ingredients. Putting your own signature twist on it is easy, and soon everyone will be begging you for the recipe.
Ingredients
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese + more if needed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 (5 ounce) package arugula
Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the dressing ingredients (oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard) to a small bowl and whisk together.
- Add the arugula to a salad bowl and toss with the dressing and parmesan cheese.
- Taste and adjust if needed (e.g. add a splash more oil or lemon juice) and season with salt & pepper.
- This salad wilts quickly, so enjoy it right away. Grate/shave more parmesan on top if you wish.
