Easy Arugula Salad

I threw this salad together one night, and my family ate the whole thing!  It was the perfect pair to the filet mignon I had made.  I also paired it with grilled pork tenderloin, and it was perfection.  I would say this salad is not the star of the show, but it is a healthy and delicious sidekick.  You can add nuts and cheese, and fruit to this salad, but we enjoyed it like this.

Ingredients

1 small box of arugula 

Olive oil

Lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Put the arugula leaves in your salad bowl.

Drizzle with olive oil.  I didn't measure, but I would say I drizzled about 2-3 tbs.  

Juice 1/2 of a lemon onto the leaves.

Massage olive oil and lemon juice into the salad leaves with your hands.  The leaves will get a little wilted.

Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper and toss to serve.  

Serve with your favorite meat!  This porkloin recipe from Carlsbad Cravings is perfection, and my arugula salad tastes delicious with it.
