Arugula Salad with Lemon-Parmesan Dressing

We pulled up the last of the arugula crop last weekend, and I set out to find a light but kicky little dressing to compliment it. As usual, Bon Appetit didn’t let me down. This is a bright, versatile dressing that I will definitely be making again.

My cute green and white bowl (thank you for noticing) is from Target’s Privet House Collection.

Lemon-Parmesan Dressing, Bon Appetit, April 2009

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
  • 4 cups (packed) baby arugula
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
Directions:

Blend first 4 ingredients in processor. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Cover; chill up to 3 days.

Combine arugula and tomatoes in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat.

  1. I was just saying that I need to try arugula, I generally buy romaine. I am sure I have had it in a salad blend and just not known it. Now I have just the thing to make in order to try it.
