Simple Arugula Salad
Report
This Simple Arugula Salad is fresh, lemony and, more importantly, only a few ingredients are needed for this dish. Even though there are not many veggies in it, you can still impress any guest.

Ingredients
- 2 cups packed Arugula
- 2 cups packed fresh baby spinach
FOR THE DRESSING
- ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ⅓ cup lemon juice
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese not the pre-grated stuff
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- Fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash and thoroughly dry the arugula and baby spinach (I like to use a salad spinner for this step). Add into a large glass bowl.
MAKE THE DRESSING
- In a separate mixing bowl, add the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, freshly grated parmesan cheese, maple syrup, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix very well until a creamy homogenized dressing is formed.
- Drizzle as much of the dressing you would like over the greens and give it a gentle toss with a pair of tongs being careful not to smash or bruise any leaves.
- Garnish with thin-sliced Parmesan strips created using a vegetable peeler.
- Serve with any main dish and enjoy right away.
Notes
- Don't have baby spinach? Use baby oak leaf lettuce, watercress, escarole, curly endive, or longleaf lettuce.
- Don't have maple syrup? Use agave nectar or honey.
