{recipe} Simple Arugula Salad

Arugula makes for an easy last-minute salad.  It is simple, quick, and has a bold burst of flavor.  I try to use arugula in place of "normal lettuce" to up the nutritional value of our salad.  I love paring this salad with our favorite margarita pizza.

 SIMPLE ARUGULA SALAD:
* serves 4

2 large bunch of arugula, washed and dried
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted (in a dry skillet)
2 tbsp olive oil (make sure you buy unaltered olive oil)
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/2 tsp celtic sea salt & freshly grounded black pepper

* I recommend using organic/grass-fed/high quality ingredients from reputable companies when feasible.

Place the arugula, pine nuts, olive oil, lemon juice, celtic sea salt, and black pepper in a large salad bowl.  Toss well to combine.

Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up 2 days.
