Super Foods Salad: Watermelon and Goat Cheese Arugula Salad
September 02, 2010
I wanted to make a great Labor Day salad, but wanted to include my favorite “super foods”. I tossed some fresh arugula with watermelon, blueberries, walnuts and goat cheese (I love Belle Chevre) and drizzled it with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. There you have it. Not only is this so beautiful to serve, but so healthy and incredibly delicious. Great for Labor Day or any day!
Watermelon and Goat Cheese Arugula Salad

111/3 cups blueberries
