This salad recipe is easily thrown together for a nutrient-packed meal or a side to your Italian pizza. With spicy arugula as its base, it’s heart-healthy and packed with flavor.
Mix with carrots and tomatoes, then top with parsley, sunflower seeds, and parmesan — or skip the cheese if you’re being calorie-conscious. Then, a lemony vinaigrette adds just the right tang to cut through the arugula.
