Uptown Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Start by washing and slicing the zucchini, tomatoes, and red onion. If your roasted red peppers are not pre-prepared, roast them in the oven until charred, then peel and slice.

  2. 2

    Toast the walnuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the walnuts for about 5 minutes or until fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool.

  3. 3

    Assemble the salad

    In a large bowl, combine the arugula, sliced zucchini, tomatoes, red onion, roasted red peppers, and crumbled goat cheese. Toss gently.

  4. 4

    Add cheese and seasoning

    Sprinkle the provolone cheese (sliced or cubed) and toasted walnuts over the salad. Add red pepper flakes according to your spice preference.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar if desired. Toss lightly before serving or serve with the dressing on the side.
