Arugula, tomato, cucumber and pepper salad brings peppery arugula together with juicy tomato, crisp cucumber and sweet or mildly sharp pepper. It is a simple fresh salad rather than a dish tied to one specific cuisine, and is easy to adapt with whatever peppers are available. A lemon-and-olive-oil dressing suits its bright flavours; serve it alongside grilled fish, meat or beans, or add it to a sandwich or grain bowl.
Mostly vegetables, it is a light, low-calorie choice with some fibre, while arugula and peppers contribute vitamins C and K. To make it more filling, top it with chickpeas, egg or cheese. Keep the dressing modest if you want the vegetables’ freshness to remain at the forefront.
