PREPARATION

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Rinse the arugula under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Slice the mushrooms thinly. If using whole black olives, slice them in half or leave them whole if preferred.

  2. 2

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large serving bowl, combine the arugula, sliced mushrooms, and black olives. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the shaved Parmigiano over the top of the salad. Toss gently to distribute the cheese throughout the salad.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to individual plates or serve directly from the bowl. Enjoy immediately.
