Refreshing Peach + Arugula Salad


I initially made this salad just to have something light and refreshing to eat for dinner on my more *ahem* "full-figured" days. However, it is just so easy to put-together that I have started using it as a side salad for my everyday dinner. It is a simple salad with very light ingredients and easy seasoning so I always try to use fresh produce to really bring out the flavours of this salad.

Ingredients:
Baby Arugula
Baby Spinach
1 Peach
1/2 cup Pecans or Walnuts 
1 tbsp crumbled feta cheese

For the dressing:
Extra Virgin olive oil
Few drops of lime juice
salt and pepper to taste
  1. Cut the peach into small triangular pieces of about an inch and a half in length.
  2. Toast the pecans or walnuts in a skillet and break into smaller pieces.
  3. Arrange the arugula and spinach in a salad plate and top with the peach slices and pecans. Drizzle with the desired amount of dressing. Top with some feta cheese, mix well and enjoy!
