Prep Time:10 mins

Ingredients

  • 120 grams arugula
  • 200 grams fresh strawberries
  • 60 ml balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 30 grams parmesan cheese (optional, shaved)
  • 30 grams slivered almonds (toasted)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the arugula thoroughly, and set it aside.

Step 2

Rinse the strawberries, hull them, and slice them thinly.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces by half and becomes a thick glaze. This should take about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Step 4

Toast the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure they don't burn. Once golden and fragrant, remove from the skillet and set aside to cool.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the arugula and sliced strawberries. Drizzle with olive oil and toss gently to coat.

Step 6

Season the salad with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Divide the salad onto individual plates or a serving platter.

Step 8

Top with toasted slivered almonds, shaved Parmesan cheese (if using), and drizzle liberally with the balsamic glaze.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy a refreshing, wholesome salad.
