Raspberry Arugula Salad Recipe
"This simple salad makes for a great side salad to your meal and it’s perfect for so many diets. I love the colors in this salad – in fact, that’s what I was thinking about when I was creating this salad. I wanted all the ingredients to be green except for the raspberries – so I added in green olives, cucumbers, as well as salad greens like arugula and spinach leaves. Then I topped it with whole raspberries so that their color would pop out of the salad."
