Having grown up in the South, I cherish the vibrant greenery and fruits that our soil produces. This sweet and savory salad is a celebration of that bounty. It is a harmonious blend of peppery arugula and vibrant berries. The contrasting textures create a refreshing and flavorful experience that excites and cleanses the palate with each and every bite.
