Equipment

  • Nonstick Skillet
  • large bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

salad

  • cup sliced or slivered almonds
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 10 ounces arugula greens
  • 8 ounces strawberries, hulled and quartered or chopped
  • 1 avocado, chopped
  • 2 ounces crumbled goat cheese
  • cup roasted salted pistachios, chopped

champagne vinaigrette

  • 3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
  • ½ lemon juiced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, freshly grated
  • pinch kosher salt and pepper
  • ½ cup olive oil

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Place the almonds in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir in the sugar and cook, stirring often, until the sugar melts and is caramely, coating all of the almonds - about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the almonds to a piece of parchment paper to let them cool.
  • Toss the arugula with a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add in the strawberries, avocado, goat cheese, pistachios and sugared almonds. Drizzle on the dressing and toss well. Serve immediately!
  • Combine vinegar, honey, lemon juice, dijon, garlic, salt and pepper in a large bowl and whisk together. Stream in the olive oil while constantly whisking until the dressing comes together. Store in the fridge for up to one week.

Notes

This salad is best served immediately for optimal crunchiness.
