This is a simple and fresh summer salad that can be ready in under 5 minutes.
I was inspired to make this salad from a recipe that I saw in one of my favorite cookbooks . The original recipe is baby arugula with pears, Pecorino Romano cheese, fennel, parsley, and olive oil and vinegar. The sweet cherries are a good balance for the sharp baby arugula.
Ingredients & Directions
For each individual salad toss all ingredients together:
- 1.5 cups of baby arugula
- 1/2 cup of Rainier cherries (pitted and cut in half)
- Fresh Parmesan shavings
- Honey balsamic salad dressing (this is a local product that comes already prepared but would be fairly simple to prepare. The ingredients are olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, sugar, and some fresh herbs and spices)










love that bowl/mug of cherries.
I love arugula…. What a neat idea to combine it with cherries! Thanks!
