View the next recipe for this meal.

A feathery light salad of sprouts & baby greens such as arugula or mizuna for a bit of bitterness or spinach for a slightly sweeter taste. Tossed with a light vinaigrette this is the perfect spring side salad, understated yet elegant.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups arugula, torn into pieces
  • 2 cups sprouts, such as sunflower, buckwheat, radish and/or alfalfa
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon champagne vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Serving Size: 2 People



 

Preparation Instructions

Soak the sprouts and arugula in a bowl of water for a few seconds. Shake around to allow any grim to settle to the bottom. Lift out of the water and shake or spin dry in a salad spinner.

Whisk together the mustard & vinegar in the salad bowl. While whisking rapidly, slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Toss in the dry greens & sprouts. Serve immediately.
