Arugula Salad with Walnuts and Feta

This is a simple salad with rather interesting ingredients. The lettuce is spicy arugula, the vinegar is sharp sherry vinegar, and the oil is rich walnut oil. Combined together and topped with salty feta cheese, the resulting salad is anything but ordinary—a taste sensation!

Ingredients

¼ cup frozen walnuts nuts
1½ cups cleaned arugula
1 teaspoon sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon walnut oil
salt & pepper
2 tablespoons feta, crumbled cheese

We start by placing the frozen nuts on a piece of foil and placing in our toaster oven. We cook them at 350° F until fragrant. This takes about 5 minutes. We let cool and then crumble slightly with our fingers.

Meanwhile, we clean our arugula and make our dressing. In a small bowl, we whisk with a fork the vinegar with some salt and pepper. We add the walnut oil and stir well.

We toss the cleaned leaves with the dressing and top with the walnuts and feta cheese.
