Categories     Salad     Fruit     Lettuce

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound strawberries, rinsed, dried and hulled
8 basil leaves, washed, dried, and roughly chopped
1 ball fresh mozzarella (The freshest you can get! Cow's milk is good but buffalo, smoked or burrata, while slightly more expensive, are unstoppable.)

2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
Pepper
6 cups arugula, washed and dried
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • Cut the berries in half (quarter larger berries). Toss the berries with the basil. Tear or chop the mozzarella into bite-size pieces. Whisk the oil and vinegar together. Season the dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Season the salad with a pinch of salt and the juice of 1/2 a lemon. Spread the greens out on a large platter. Tuck the mozzarella and berries in and around the greens. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve
