Ingredients
- 1/2 cup walnuts chopped
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounce shiitake mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 1/2 cup cranberries dried
- 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 6 cups baby arugula or regular arugula
Instructions
- Add the walnuts to a large dry skillet and heat over medium heat for about 2 minutes until they start to brown a bit. You know when they're done when they start to smell toasted. Transfer walnuts to a small bowl.
- To the same skillet heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shiitake mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and sauté until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the cranberries, balsamic vinegar and stir.
- Add the baby arugula and stir. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the baby arugula starts to wilt a bit. Remove from heat and add the walnuts back in. Toss well and serve while warm.
Notes
The salad can also be served with crumbled blue cheese, feta cheese or grated Parmesan cheese.
