Arugula salad with walnuts, golden raisins, grape tomatoes, and Gorgonzola cheese in honey-balsamic dressing.
I love baby arugula leaves – they are so good and flavorful in fresh salads! I also love spinach. Spinach and arugula definitely top the list of my favorite salad greens! They are easily interchangeable in recipes: in this salad, you can easily substitute spinach leaves for arugula.
Try this delicious salad – it’s such a combination of flavors: savory, sweet, peppery, and salty. Earthy walnuts, sweet golden raisins, lightly peppery arugula leaves, juicy grape tomatoes, creamy and salty and very flavorful Gorgonzola cheese – all of that tossed in a slightly sweet dressing made with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and a touch of honey. YUM!

- 1/4 cup Gorgonzola cheese
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1 cup grape tomatoes
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- In a large salad bowl, combine arugula leaves, walnuts, raisins and grape tomatoes.
- To make salad dressing: in a separate small mixing bowl, mix vinegar with olive oil, honey, whisking until emulsified.
- Add dressing to the salad and toss until well mixed. Note: you don't have to use the whole amount of salad dressing - use just enough to coat. Top with crumbled Gorgonzola cheese.
