Simple Arugula Salad – it’s made with a tasty blend of peppery arugula, sharp parmesan, flavor concentrated dried cranberries, and nutty almonds.And it’s finished with a refreshing, tart and lightly sweetened dressing to highlight it.Refreshing Arugula Salad It may not be the first type of salad you’d think to make because those humble arugula leaves are so often unappreciated and skipped over.

But they are a nutritious little leaf with big flavor and they make an incredible salad.This is a great recipe to have on hand for a quick side, plus it’s handy to have during the holidays when the other more popular lettuce choices are picked over.Here you can switch up the ingredients based on what you have on hand.

It’s a forgiving recipe with plenty of room for substitutions.For instance, I’ve made this with lemon juice then balsamic vinegar and I’ve loved both options so I’ve listed either one to be used here.I leave it up to you to pick your favorite.

Then dried sweetened cherries would also be delicious in place of the cranberries, and pecans will work in place of the almonds.And why not feta for the parmesan? Another option here is to convert this into a main dish by adding a protein to it such as grilled chicken or rotisserie chicken.Lots of different variations here with this super easy, perfectly delicious salad!
