Easy Delicious Arugula Salad!

Already some of my favorite vegetables are arugula and brussels sprouts, but when you add balsalmic vinegar and maple syrup to them, they are BOMB!

Please try this recipe I found via Foodgawker and Love & Lemons! You can add whatever veggies in addition to the original recipe (I added mushrooms).

This make one Entree serving:

A big handful of arugula

a small handful of dried cranberries (optional or use nuts! - pinenuts would be awesome)

3/4 cup brussels sprouts (cut in half)

1/2 bunch broccolini (cut in florets & use the stems for garlic stir fry later!)

1.5 - 2 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp balsalmic vinegar

1 Tbsp pure maple syrup

1 tsp sea salt

a couple turns of the pepper mill

Preheat oven to 375.

Toss the first two ingredients in a salad bowl - they will be waiting for the delicious warm, sweet veggies to join later.

Toss the rest of the ingredients together in a big bowl. I baked the brussel sprouts for 15 minutes before adding the broccolini (10 minutes). Then I added the mushrooms for about 5 minutes after that.

Not the greatest picture, but look at all those greens!

Now what I need are some big, cutsie salad bowls! AKA not a pyrex mixing bowl.
