Salad with arugula and sun-dried tomatoes

2 servings

5 minutes

Arugula and sun-dried tomato salad is an ode to Mediterranean flavor, combining the delicate bitterness of arugula, the richness of sun-dried tomatoes, and the piquancy of parmesan. This salad is born from European culinary traditions where the simplicity of ingredients reveals the depth of flavor. The combination of fresh leaves with a rich sweet-sour dressing made from lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil makes it a versatile companion to any meat or fish main dishes. Crunchy olives and red onion add textural contrast, while parmesan completes the harmony. This salad is perfect for a light summer lunch or an elegant dinner, reminiscent of warm evenings by the Italian coast.
