Closeup of an arugula salad with mango and avocado

Arugula is one of our favourite greens for a fresh appetite-stimulating salad. It’s now in season and available everywhere. If you find that Arugula is too bitter for you to enjoy (as it can be later in the summer months), don’t throw it out! A simple squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt can help neutralize some of the bitterness within a few minutes. It is one of the best greens to help stimulate your natural digestive enzymes and makes a healthful addition to every meal.

  • 1 large mango, cubed
