SALAD
1/4 lb baby spinach, chopped
2 handfuls of arugula (aka rocket leaves), chopped
2 limes, squeezed over greens (allow to sit while make dressing)
cut up 3 small tomatoes or use 20 grape tomatoes
handful of microgreens
DRESSING
1 ripe mango
1/2 red pepper, deseeded and deribbed, cut into big strips
2 sun dried tomatoes, soaked for a couple of hours in water, chopped into pieces
1/2 serrano, I like mine red and ripe
5 basil leaves, rinsed and whole
5 button (white) mushrooms, rinsed well
Salad of arugula and spinach sits with lime juice while cutting up tomatoes and making dressing. Will wilt the leaves and give them loads of flavor. Especially needed when not using oil or salt.
Blend the mango, red pepper, serrano and basil on HIGH. When smooth add the whole mushrooms and blend on LOW until slightly chopped up. I like to leave it chunky. Can cut up mushrooms by hand too...but more work.
Taste dressing and see if it needs anything. Pour over salad. Mix well. Add microgreens to the top. Yum-yum!!!
