Arugula & Plum Salad

Simple side salads are really underated in my opinion!  Adding a salad to any meal is a great way to pack in some extra veggies AND add a low pp option to your dinner.  This salad I made to pair with the Honey-mustard Chicken I posted earlier this week.  An added perk was that the plums we got at the store were perfectly ripe!

Servings: 2
Serving Size: Side salad
Points Plus: 2pp
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: n/a

Ingredients:
Arugula
2 red plums, sliced
1 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Directions:
Wash and portion out the arugula into 2 salad bowls.  Wash and slice the plums, removing the pitts.  Whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar and salt & pepper and lightly toss each salad with the dressing.  Serve with your favorite chicken or it would also be good with pork chops!

Tip:
Add a bit more flavor to the salad with a sprinkle of sliced almonds or pine nuts (make sure to adjust the pp value accordingly)!
