Ingredients

  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen), cooked

  • 1 cup arugula, chopped

  • 2 cups baby spinach or red lettuce, chopped

  • Half an avocado, sliced chunky

  • ½ cup fresh blueberries or sliced strawberries (or both!)

  • 1/8 cup olive oil

  • 1/8 cup fig or blackberry balsamic vinegar (I love the vinegar from BR Cohn!)

  • Tiny pinch of sea salt

  • ½ cup cooked chopped salmon or chicken (optional)

    Directions:
    In a medium saucepan, cook peas until just blanched, about two minutes in a small amount of boiling water. Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, fill two salad bowls with chopped arugula and baby spinach. (I LOVE using my OXO Good Grips® Chopped Salad Scissors!) Divide the avocado, blueberries and/or strawberries evenly between the two bowls. Add the peas, also distributed evenly. If you want some protein in this salad, add your choice of a ¼ cup of nuts or seeds or cooked salmon or chicken to each bowl.

    In a medium glass bowl or salad dressing shaker, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and salt. Cover well and shake until blended (or use a fork to whisk well). If you like a less bold salad dressing, use two parts olive oil to only one part vinegar. Drizzle dressing over your salads and serve. Extra dressing will stay fresh covered in the refrigerator for five to seven days.
