Light and colorful ingredients make this arugula salad with strawberries, red radishes and macadamia nuts perfect for celebrating the summer days; all topped with a creamy homemade gorgonzola dressing.
Ingredients
Makes 4-6
For the dressing:
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
½ cup (105g) gorgonzola
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 strawberries
Salt and pepper, to taste
For the salad:
8 ounces arugula (about 12 cups)
15 strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced
4 red radishes, thinly sliced
¼ cup (38g) macadamia nuts
Instructions
In a blender, mix together the Greek yogurt, gorgonzola, extra virgin olive oil, strawberries, sat and pepper. Pour into a small serving bowl. In a large bowl, add the arugula, strawberry slices, radish slices and macadamia nuts.
Note: Since the gorgonzola dressing has a strong flavor, I suggest serving the dressing separately from the salad so that each person can add as much flavor as he/she desires. Due to the strawberries, the gorgonzola dressing doesn’t conserve well in the refrigerator, so make the dressing right before serving the salad.
