Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

½ cup frozen blueberries
½ cup frozen raspberries
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Himalayan pink salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 cups arugula
½ cup fresh blueberries
½ cup fresh strawberries, sliced
¼ cup fresh blackberries
¼ cup fresh raspberries
¼ cup walnuts, chopped
¼ cup dried cranberries

Steps:

  • Place blueberries, raspberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper for vinaigrette to a blender. Blend for at least 1 minute.
  • Keep the blender running and remove the air cap. Pour in olive oil in a slow, steady stream. Blend until vinaigrette is smooth and emulsified, 10 to 15 seconds.
  • Combine lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper for salad in a large bowl; whisk until combined. Drizzle in olive oil while whisking rapidly until the mixture is smooth.
  • Add arugula, all fresh berries, walnuts, and cranberries to the bowl; toss well to coat with lemon juice mixture.
  • Divide salad among four serving bowls. Drizzle each with desired amount of vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
