I'm not a huge fan of arugula, but I really enjoyed this salad. The goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes really balance out the peppery flavor of the arugula.

This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This salad was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less goat cheese next time.
