This Basil Vinaigrette Zucchini Walnut Arugula Salad is a great mix of tastes and textures. This dish is great as a side or a light meal by itself. The fresh zucchini, the spicy arugula, the crunchy walnuts, and the fragrant basil vinaigrette make it a great combination.
Ingredients: 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced. 1 cup arugula leaves. 1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped. 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped. 1/4 cup olive oil. 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar. 1 clove garlic, minced. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Put the sliced zucchini, arugula, chopped walnuts, and basil leaves in a large salad bowl. Mix the garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl with a whisk. This makes the basil vinaigrette. The basil vinaigrette should be poured over the salad ingredients in the large bowl. Gentle toss the salad to make sure that the vinaigrette coats all of the ingredients evenly. Serve right away as a healthy and refreshing salad.
