Try This Way: The Best Arugula and Goat Cheese Salad (Low-Carb)

How I Found the Best Arugula and Goat Cheese Salad Recipe

When I first tried the arugula and goat cheese salad, I became obsessed. I got the recipe from the chef at a restaurant I visited in New York Upstate and started making it for almost every dinner.

The taste is heavenly, and it’s exceptionally healthy. I’ve tried it with many dishes, and I can confidently say it pairs well with almost anything. However, I’ve concluded that it’s best suited for grilled meats.

Arugula shouldn’t touch water; otherwise, it becomes soggy and the salad looks off. So, I buy triple-washed arugula because I want my salad to look fresh!

As for the goat cheese, I usually buy it crumbled. These tips help me save time. If you can’t find crumbled cheese, you can choose another variety and crumble it yourself (it doesn’t take much time).

You only need five ingredients, and it’s ready in minutes! The salad takes me only three minutes in total. Once the ingredients are ready, all I have to do is combine them.
