Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons white balsamic vinegar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups arugula
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves
- ½ cup thinly sliced red onion
- 1 cup grape tomatoes halved
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 cups bite-sized watermelon chunks
- ½ cup dried cranberries and pecans
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, and salt together. Set aside.
- Combine the arugula, spinach, onions, and tomatoes in a large salad bowl.
- Drizzle the prepared vinaigrette over the salad mixture. Toss to coat.
- Add the feta cheese, watermelon, dried cranberries, and pecans just before serving.
Notes
- This is a great light and fresh recipe for a hot summer day.
- You can substitute the feta for fresh mozzarella or blue cheese crumbles.
- This is not a great recipe for leftovers as the spinach and arugula starts getting soggy.
- I recommend eating within a day of making.
