Easy Summer Salad



Here is one of my favorite summer salads that we enjoyed tonight. It is quick and easy to prepare. All ingredients are local and delicious.

Line a platter with sliced cucumbers, tomato, then thinly sliced onion. Top with arugula (from Mrs. Freak's garden). Salt and pepper each layer and drizzle with olive oil and a tiny squirt of balsamic. A great way to start off dinner in the dog days of summer. Also great with sliced avocado on top!

Looks fantastic! Could you substitute basil for the Arugula? Could you put mozzarella chunks on top?
