📝 Ingredients

• 5 oz / 140g arugula (rocket) - I prefer baby arugula
• 1/4 cup shaved parmesan cheese

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (approx 1/2 lemon)
• Salt and black pepper to taste

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Add the walnuts to a skillet and toast them over medium heat for a few minutes, tossing so they don't burn and allow them to cool
2. 2In the meantime, wash the arugula leaves and dry them well through a salad spinner
3. 3Add the dressing ingredients to a small bowl or jar and whisk to combine
4. 4Finely chop up the walnuts and shave the parmesan cheese using a cheese grater or veggie peeler
5. 5Add the arugula to a salad bowl and pour over the dressing. Lightly toss, I prefer to gently use my hands to coat them well without bruising the leaves
6. 6Top the salad with the chopped walnuts and shaved parmesan and serve up your light and delicious Arugula Salad!
