I'm not sure what I did wrong but this salad was not good. The dressing was too oily and the arugula was wilted.

This pasta salad is a great way to use up leftover pasta and arugula.

I love that this salad is so versatile. I've added grilled chicken, shrimp, and even tofu to it and it's always delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about the arugula, but it was really good in this salad. The mozzarella and pine nuts added a nice touch, too.

Not a fan of arugula but this recipe convinced me otherwise.
