Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Tags: Arugula, baking, Cooking, Cooking Tips, Food, Greens, Grilling, Kitchen Hints, recipes

Arugula……………………..

Choose bright, dry, fresh-looking arugula with a peppery, clean scent and no signs of wilting. Pre-washed, bagged arugula is also available at supermarkets. Arugula is very perishable. Do not rinse until use.

After getting your Arugula home wrap leaves in a cloth or paper towel and place them in a perforated plastic bag in the vegetable crisper section of the refrigerator. Arugula will keep in the refrigerator for about 10 days but it will be most flavorful in used in 3 to 6 days.

Find healthy, delicious green salad recipes, from the food and nutrition experts at EatingWell.

Peach Salad with Tomatoes and Raspberry Vinaigrette
Here’s a salad to toss together during the dog days of summer, when peaches and tomatoes are both at their best. Use a combination of lettuces that have different textures and flavors–a tender, more buttery variety with something more substantial and peppery, for instance…………………

Chopped Greek Salad with Chicken
Chicken turns this Greek-inspired salad into a substantial main course. Feel free to substitute other chopped fresh vegetables, such as broccoli or bell peppers, for the tomatoes or cucumber. Use leftover chicken, store-roasted chicken or quickly poach a couple boneless, skinless chicken breasts while you prepare the rest of the salad. Serve with pita bread and hummus…………………………..

Chopped Salad with Cornbread Croutons
At Handsome Hog, his restaurant in St. Paul, Minnesota, Justin Sutherland offers this chopped salad topped with any barbecued meat on the menu. The chef recommends brisket–it takes this already Southern-inspired salad a step further……………………..
