Summertime Arugula Salad with Berries

This Summertime Arugula Salad with Berries is the side dish I didn’t know I needed, until I finally figured out how to stop overcomplicating dinner. 🙃 When the main dish is a little more involved, this salad keeps things light, fresh, and simple. And honestly? It’s just as perfect when you keep everything simple (because summer deserves that kind of ease). 🌿🍓 Peppery arugula gets a burst of color and fiber from juicy berries, whatever you have on hand will work! Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, they all bring natural sweetness and a touch of sunshine to the plate. Fresh, fast, and flexible, this salad is here to make summer meals a whole lot easier, and always a tasty delight.
