Arugula Salad

1 cup walnuts — chopped
1 – 5 oz (142 grams) bag of arugula
1 green pear (not too soft) — cored and chopped with the skin
1/4 of a red onion — finely sliced

Place the chopped walnuts in a small skillet and toast for a few minutes. Shake the pan occasionally. They will be ready when you can smell them and they are lightly toasted. Be careful not to burn the nuts. Remove from the heat and cool down.

Place arugula in a bowl. Add the pear, cooled walnuts, red onion and blue cheese. Toss.

1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon Dijon or yellow mustard

FOR THE DRESSING –

Place the olive oil in a jar with a lid. Add the vinegar, honey, mustard, salt and pepper. Secure the lid on the jar, tightly.

Shake the jar vigorously.

  1. Hi Mary Ann. Great healthy and delicious recipe. I really like how you add in the nutritional information along with the recipe. It is informative and interesting. Thanks for doing that. I plan on making this salad. Just happen to have the ingredients on hand already. LOVE your videos. Thanks for sharing.

  2. This was a 10/10 recipe!!! I needed a leafy green salad idea to serve as a side with the macaroni and cheese I was planning to bake, and this was just perfect! Delicious!

    I skipped the blue cheese because I was having it with Mac n cheese. I may have to buy more arugula tomorrow, so I can make it again, with blue cheese 😃
