Smoked Salmon and Arugula Salad

StrongerTogether.coop

This simple salad is a great lunch, and the soft, salty salmon pairs perfectly with crisp greens and creamy dressing. You can use fat-free yogurt and low-fat mayo if you want to keep the fat content low, or full-fat, for a richer dressing. If you want to snip some fresh dill over the salmon, that would be lovely, too.

Ingredients

1 clove garlic
1⁄4 cup yogurt, Greek (plain)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh)
1 teaspoon sugar
1⁄2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a blender or food processor, mince the garlic, then add the yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, sugar and salt, and puree. Scrape down and repeat if necessary, then drizzle in the olive oil with the machine running. Reserve.
