Arugula, Dried Fig, Walnut, and Goat Cheese Salad
I am so excited to share this salad with you! I used to not like sweet salads, but this one is the perfect mix of sweet, tangy and crunchy, and the arugula brings a light, peppery flavor that is absolutely incredible.
Feel free to omit the beets or anything else you don’t enjoy. If you don’t want a sweet dressing, you can always pick up a fig balsamic dressing, which is also incredible. My favorite way to eat this salad is to pair it with a pepperoni and onion brick oven pizza topped with red pepper flakes!
Ingredients:
2 cups arugula
1/2 cup dried figs, halved
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup goat cheese crumbles
1 beet pickled in white wine vinegar, thinly sliced
balsamic glaze or fig balsamic glaze, to taste
Instructions:
Gather the arugula and place in a bowl.
Add the walnuts, goat cheese, beets and figs.
Drizzle with the balsamic glaze, and enjoy!
