- Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the arugula.
- After the mushrooms and shallots have marinated, add them to the salad bowl with the arugula and tomatoes. Pour any remaining marinade over the top.
- Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad. Toss everything together gently to ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately as a light and flavorful salad.
Tips:
- Make sure to let the mushrooms marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors.
- Use fresh, high-quality olive oil and vinegar for the best taste.
- Feel free to adjust the salsa sauce based on your preferred level of spiciness.
- Gently toss the arugula into the salad just before serving to keep it crisp and fresh.
- Chop the parsley finely to distribute its fresh flavor evenly throughout the salad.
- You can add some crumbled feta or goat cheese for an extra layer of flavor.
