Can I add other ingredients to the salad? We think this salad is great just as it is, but if you want to add some more veggies, we’d recommend complementing the bitterness of the arugula with other bitter greens, like endive or radicchio. You could also add some thinly sliced apple, if you wanted, for some brightness and crunch! I don’t have shaved Parmesan. Can I use grated instead? We really like how the flakes of shaved cheese mingle with the arugula leaves, but in a pinch you could use grated instead. Just keep in mind that with a simple salad like this, it’s all about the quality of the ingredients. The better your parm is, the better the salad will be! Made this salad? We’d love to hear what you think, as well as any other fun additions you’ve made in the comments below!
