Calories 67kcal
Ingredients
- 4 cups baby arugula
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup red onion sliced thin
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Place arugula in a bowl. Add lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Use clean hands to gently massage the arugula. This will only take a minute or two. You'll start to feel the leaves soften.
- Add the red onion and Parmesan then toss with utensils. Season once more with salt and fresh pepper and serve immediately.
Notes
It is best to make this immediately before serving. Once you massage the greens they will get tender and begin to wilt.
This serves 4 as a side salad but as a main course will serve 1 - 2.
