That sounds delicious Jamie. I'll have to try it. This is our favorite summer salad. We have it for lunch sometimes because it is light and refreshing.
Fruit and Arugula Salad with a Spicy Orange Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
6 cups arugula leaves
1 mango, peeled and cut into long slices
1 avocado, peeled and sliced
½ red onion, sliced
1 tbs lime juice
Spicy orange vinaigrette dressing
1 tbs champagne vinegar
4 tbs orange juice, about ½ orange
2 tbs lime juice, about ½ lime
4 tbs olive oil
½ tsp cumin
2 tbs finely chopped cilantro
1 red chili or hot pepper, sliced
Salt and pepper
Preparation:
1. Combine all the ingredients for the salad dressing in a jar, close it tight and shake until the ingredients are well mixed. 2. Soak the onion slices in warm water with a dash of salt and 1 tbs lime juice for about 10 minutes. 3. Rinse and drain the onions slices. 4. Toss the arugula leaves with half of the vinaigrette. 5. Add the avocado slices, mango slices and onion slices to the arugula mix, drizzle the remaining vinaigrette on top. 6. Serve immediately.

Gonna Lock This Thread and make the Kitchen a Sub-board for our recipes. Place the Recipe title in the thread title so it's easier for folks to search.
