Stew of the Week

Arugula Shmagugula!

One of my favorite sandwiches is also one of my favorite salads. That is the beauty of the arugula, pear, goat cheese, and pine nuts combination.

1. Available everywhere salads (though not always sandwiches) are sold.
2. Cheap and easy to make at home since we all know salads are way overpriced in the outside world.
3. If you really need a dressing, my favorite is honey if it's in sandwich form and a touch of vinaigrette if it's in salad form. But, of course, I love mine bare. Sexy!
4. Super nutritious! You've got your protein in the form of goat cheese and pine nuts, your veggies in the form of super-healthy arugula, and your fruit in the form of always-a-knock-out pear.
5. Goes well with any type of bread! Whole-wheat is generally the healthiest, but a really tasty baguette is pretty hard to beat.
6. Switch it up! Maybe you feel like Parmesan instead of goat cheese or walnuts instead of pine nuts. Spoiler Alert: It'll still be delicious.

Happy Stewing!
