Arugula, Strawberry, Mozzarella & Almond Salad

Arugula, Strawberry, Mozzarella & Almond Salad is quite a mouth-full to say, but trust me: it's very easy to put together!

The combination of slightly bitter arugula with sweet strawberries, milky/salty/smooth mozzarella and crunchy toasted almonds is great (if I say so myself).

And the finishing touch of balsamic glaze adds depth to this salad. You can have the salad as the start to your meal, or as a side to grilled chicken or fish.

There really isn't a recipe per say: Combine young arugula leaves with quartered strawberries, wedges of fresh mozzarella and toasted almond slivers. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and you are ready to eat!

I would not make this salad too far in advance as the nuts might get soggy and the arugula might start to wilt.

This looks wonderful. I don't think I would have thought to use mozzarella in this context, but it looks like it works really well here.

Feta would've been the first cheese at the top of the brain for this salad, so thanks for suggesting something new.
