Arugula Pomegranate Salad
Oh, how I love arugula, also known as "rocket" in Italy! You'll immediately know when you find good arugula because it brings a burst of flavor and freshness like no other. Arugula's secret? Glucosinolates! These natural substances infuse it with that delightful peppery flavor and scent. Arugula may also help reduce inflammation!Don’t forget to pair this salad with my famous Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing! (link to dressing in recipe notes below)
