Salad

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt

Directions

Step 1
Place blueberries, raspberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper for vinaigrette to a blender. Blend for at least 1 minute.

Add arugula, all fresh berries, walnuts, and cranberries to the bowl; toss well to coat with lemon juice mixture.

Step 5
Divide salad among four serving bowls. Drizzle each with desired amount of vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
