Simple Arugula Salad


Being back in Salt Lake City, my family and I have been experimenting with square foot gardening.
Although only 3 days ago it snowed about 4 inches, the weather is quickly warming up and it is time to start planting certain vegetables.
One of which is lettuce. I am not a huge lettuce fan, but I do enjoy arugula. It has a tangy and pungent flavor. Here is an easy arugula salad that goes well with pasta or pizza.

Ingredients:
1 bunch of arugula
1/2 fresh lemon (to be squeezed over the salad)
1/2 tsp. of fresh ground pepper
1/2 tsp. of real salt
1 TBS. balsamic vinegar
1 TBS. freshly grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
Squeeze the lemon over the arugula. Add the pepper, salt, and vinegar and toss. Sprinkle the top with the parmesan cheese. Serves 2.
