Recipe - or something close enough
In a large bowl, combine the following:
2 handfulls of baby arugula
thinly sliced red onion
slivered almonds
crumbled feta
sliced oranges (left over from my bowl of citrus)
Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss and eat.
Why this works - the salad is a great combination of contrasting flavors and textures. Here's the break down:
salty - feta
sweet - orange
sour - balsamic
crunchy - almonds, onions
Give it a try.
Have any other ways of using arugula? Let me know.

I love the peppery bite of arugula and it is often what I put in salads and folks say 'what is the different flavor I am getting'...
hey you!
1) do you have that much stuff in your fridge at home? and your roommate puts up with it?
2) how long does arugula last after bought? Whenever I buy something leafy like spinach, it goes on me before I finish it. side effect of the single & lazy lifestyle, i guess
