  • ½ lemon
  • ½ cup Lemon Basil Dressing brand: Litehouse
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese shaved
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash all ingredients and pat dry. 
  2. Using a knife, halve mozzarella balls into bite sized pieces. Chop and dice tomatoes and basil leaves. Slice the avocado.
  3. Place arugula in a salad bowl. Add mozzarella pieces, tomatoes, basil, and avocado.

Notes

  • This salad is best served fresh, but you can store in the refrigerator for up to three days. Keep the avocado and dressing separate until ready to enjoy.
  • How fresh your ingredients are will really make this dish shine. Try using homegrown/farmers market basil, ripe cherry or heirloom tomatoes, etc if you have access!
