I'll be the first to admit I have a problem. I'm obsessed with summer's tomatoes!! I can't NOT buy them at the market when I see them.....calling to me. This is a very simple but pretty salad that celebrates the best of summer. Enjoy :-) —Whats4Dinner
Ingredients
- Simple balsamic reduction
-
1 cup
balsamic vinegar
-
1 tablespoon
sugar
- Salad ingredients
-
4 cups
arugula
-
2
heirloom tomatoes, sliced
-
1 cup
figs, stemmed and quartered
-
2
rounds of Miyoko's vegan mozzarella, sliced
Directions
-
Get your balsamic reduction going first. It's really challenging...NOT! In a small sauce pan, add the vinegar and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally till it becomes sort of thick and coats the back of your spoon. Let cool for about 15 minutes.
-
On a lovely serving platter place your washed arugula, then the rest of the ingredients on top in an appetizing way.
-
Just drizzle your balsamic reduction over your salad and voila!
