Directions

  1. In the bottom of a large bowl, mix the Basic Vinaigrette with the artichokes, olives, and tomatoes. Pile the arugula and feta cheese on top and set aside until you are ready to eat.
  2. Just before serving, toss everything together to combine.

Chef Tips

When you make the Basic Vinaigrette dressing for this salad, don’t add any salt, even though the recipe asks for it. The olives will add their saltiness to the dressing as the salad sits, and once all the ingredients are tossed together just before eating, the feta will add a little more.

Vtopia makes some really good vegan cheese substitutes including feta, that are excellent for salads like these.
