Cherry and Arugula Low Histamine Salad

Leafy greens and peppery arugula pair with sweet cherries, earthy basil, and nutty macadamias for a flavorful and refreshing salad.
Ingredients

For the Salad

  • 3 cups Organic Arugula
  • 2 cups Organic Red Leaf Lettuce
  • ¼ cup Macadamia Nuts chopped
  • ½ cup Cherries fresh or frozen, pitted

For the Dressing

Instructions
  • Wash the lettuce, arugula, and basil. Set the basil aside. Dry the lettuce with a salad spinner or clean dish towel.*
  • Cut or break the lettuce into bite sized pieces.
  • Add the lettuce and arugula to a large mixing bowl and toss to combine.
  • Chop the macadamia nuts. Set aside.
  • Cut ½ cup of cherries in half and set aside.
  • In your blender, make the dressing by adding ¼ cup of the whole cherries, basil, olive oil, water, and salt. Blend until combined.
  • Add the dressing to the arugula and red leaf lettuce. Toss to combine.
  • Distribute the dressed salad greens evenly between two plates or salad bowls. Add the halved cherries and mac nuts to each plate and serve.
  • Have leftover chicken? Add it to the salad for a boost of protein.
  • Like a little kick to your salad? Add some thinly sliced shallots or red onion.
Notes *A salad spinner removes extra water and keeps the salad from getting too watery once the dressing is added. But you can also just pat the lettuce dry with a clean dish towel.
