It is summer and farmer’s market and groceries are full of fresh vegetables.  In this 90 degree temperature, I don’t think any one would enjoy standing in front of a hot stove or oven and cooking something for dinner.  Especially I don’t.  So I have been trying different salads and this came out to be one of my favorite and it so simple and easy to make with just a few ingredients.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups baby arugula (rocket)
• 3 medium sized strawberries halved and sliced
• 6 grape tomatoes quartered
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon vegan mayonnaise
• Salt and ground black pepper
• Feta cheese (optional)
• Sweet and spiced almonds roughly chopped

Method:

• To make the salad dressing mix together the olive oil, mayonnaise, salt and pepper
• Add arugula, strawberries, grape tomatoes to a salad bowl and add salad dressing and mix thoroughly
• Divide salad into 2 bowls and top with almonds and feta cheese
• See recipe here for sweet and spicy almonds.
• Makes: 2 servings.
