Suzy, I definitely know how you feel about being forgetful. I'm starting to forget what things are called so everything is now 'thingy' with hand gestures. I put it down to getting older, but sheesh I didn't realize it would come so soon! Anyway, I love your salad recipe! Arugula has such a great taste and I especially love the addition of the jalapeño. It all sounds wonderful. :)

Love your blog.  I have always said my kids wee my best teachers - now it's my grandkids who are honest to speak the truth to me!  Love that.  It was good to meet you at Hope.  Thanks for being a friend to my lovely daughter.  She adores you!

I definitely need to clear my brain's cache of temporary files that  clutter my mind.  :)  Good Advice.  Even better salad.

What a beautiful and delicious salad! Love the avocado there!

This salad was over the top delicious and was excellent with your whole grilled chicken recipe.

YUM!  I love trying out new salads!  I am going to try that dressing ASAP!

I served this tonight with https://www.themediterraneandish.com/honey-mustard-salmon-recipe -- a great combo! A question about the oregano: would fresh oregano work just as well? I have in my mind that fresh is always preferable but perhaps dry has certain advantages that I'm not aware of.

This simple arugula salad requires only 6 ingredients and takes just 15 minutes to make.   Garnished with lemon zest and grated Parmesan cheese, the arugula salad is a perfect addition to any dinner!
