Arugula and Lemon Summer Salad
Ingredients
- 6-8 pieces asparagus, diagonally sliced into 1-inch pieces
- 1/4 cup sundried tomato, roughly chopped, (I buy the dehydrated ones from Trader Joe's)
- 1/2 cup peas
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 lemon
- 4-6 big handfuls argula (typically 1 bag)
- 1/4 cup almonds, roughly chopped
- 1/8 red onion, finely sliced
- 1/2 avocado, diced
- 3 tbsp chopped green onion
- pink salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Once asparagus is chopped into pieces, saute with sundried tomato and peas in extra virgin olive oil for 4-5 minutes on medium-low heat.
- Add squeezed lemon, pink salt, ground pepper and garlic powder to skillet and toss.
- Once tender, about 5-6 minutes, set aside and let cool.
- In a large bowl, toss sauteed veggies with arugula, red onion and almonds.
- Top with avocado and chopped green onion, then an extra drizzle of olive oil, lemon, pink salt, and pepper. Enjoy! 🙂

Hey Rachael!
Is there another veggie you could substitute for asparagus? I absolutely loathe asparagus but would love to make this salad!
