I dunno, tasted kinda bland to me. Maybe add more seasoning?
Simple and effective salad! My go-to for meals now!
Yum! Love the lemony taste! Will def make again! 🍋
I totally agree! The lemon adds such a nice zing! 🍋🥗
This salad is so fresh and light! Perfect for a summer day!
Is arugula the same as rocket? 🤔
Tried it with feta instead of parmesan and it was bomb! 👌
What if I don’t like lemon? Is there a substitute?
You could try using vinegar instead, like balsamic or apple cider! It’ll give a nice tangy flavor too.
I dunno, is there really a good substitute for lemon? Just try the recipe as it is.
This is too simple. I need more ingredients for a real salad! 😒
Easy to make but my kids didn’t eat it! Only my partner did.
Simple but tasty! I made it for my kids and they actually ate it, surprised me!
I added some nuts for crunch. Delicious!
Nuts in salad? That sounds weird but I bet it adds a nice crunch. Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve never tried arugula before. Is it supposed to taste so peppery? It was good, but not my favorite green.
This salad is super refreshing! The lemon gives it such a great zing. I used feta instead of Parmesan though. Yum!
Um, can I just say? What is arugula? Sounds like a fancy word for lettuce. Ha!
Arugula is actually not just fancy lettuce! It’s a peppery green, adds a real zing to salads! You should try it!
LOL, I thought the same thing! But it’s kinda special, not just lettuce. You can find it in stores usually.
5 stars all the way! I love how quick it is to put together. Perfect for a hot day!
So easy to make! I made this for my lunch today and it was delicious. 10/10 would recommend!
I don’t understand why people like salads. This is just leafs with some juice! Not a meal.
Salads are actually super healthy! You should give them another chance. They can be filling too, especially with cheese on top!
But it ain’t just leaves! That lemon and cheese make it tasty. You might be missing out!
Lemon and arugula are a match made in heaven! I added some walnuts for crunch. Definitely trying again!
Too much lemon for me. I think I added a bit too much juice, oops. Will try less next time.
Wish I could post a pic, my salad looked nothing like the one in your recipe! Haha. But still tasted okay.
