Arugula Nectarine Salad
There is nothing better than a big sweet, juicy nectarine and this Arugula Nectarine Salad will prove me right! This dish is so colorful and with the added goat cheese it has the perfect amount of tang to balance the sweetness from the fruit. Simple, fresh ingredients topped with your favorite vinaigrette is the perfect summer dish!
Ingredients

- 2 Nectarine sliced in thin wedges
- 1 Red Onion sliced in thin wedges
- ¼ cup Fresh Basil chopped if large leaves
- 2 oz Goat Cheese crumbled
- 1 pinch Black Pepper I like fresh ground black pepper
Instructions
