A recipe from natural chef and fitness instructor Erin O'Leary Stewart, who's worked for top restaurateurs and now has a baking business online at o-cookies.com: She says she wants to share her desire to eat well, and her "love for delectable dishes and passion for fitness and health" with others.
Arugula, Avocado & Citrus Salad
This is a wonderful and simple winter salad right when citrus is at its peak. The almonds add a nice crunch and the olives a good salty bite that pairs well with the creamy avocado.
Directions
To make the dressing, combine the dijon mustard and the lemon juice in a bowl. Whisk in the olive oil until it emulsifies. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Place the arugula, avocado and olives in a bowl. Toss with dressing and top with toasted almonds. Serve immediately.
Thanks, Erin!
