Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    In a large salad bowl, combine the fresh spinach and arugula. Rinse them thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit, then pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner.

  2. 2

    Add Shredded Carrots

    Add the shredded carrots to the bowl with the spinach and arugula, mixing gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, pure olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced fresh garlic (finely chopped), salt, and pepper until well combined.

  4. 4

    Add Fresh Basil

    Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the salad bowl with the greens and carrots.

  5. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure all the ingredients are well coated with the dressing.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve immediately as a fresh side dish or a light main course.
