Arugula Salad is a fresh and zesty dish originating from Mediterranean cuisine, often celebrated for its nutritional benefits and vibrant flavors. The salad typically features peppery arugula leaves as the base, complemented by ingredients like cherry tomatoes, shaved Parmesan cheese, nuts, or seeds, and a light vinaigrette made with olive oil and lemon juice. Known for its rich nutrient profile, arugula is packed with vitamins A, C, and K, along with calcium and antioxidants that support bone health and boost immunity. The olive oil provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while the added vegetables contribute essential nutrients and fiber. However, toppings like cheese or candied nuts should be consumed in moderation due to their higher fat and sugar content. Arugula Salad offers a nutrient-dense option perfect for light meals or as a refreshing side to complement a variety of dishes.
