I’m not normally a huge fan of fruit in salads, but this bit of summer deliciousness is an exception. Peach and Arugula salad brings the peppery bitterness of cruciferous arugula and the sweetness...

Chef Tips

A 5 ounce box of baby arugula = about 7 loosely packed cups.

I always wash ‘pre-washed’ greens a second time to be on the safe side.
