Arugula, Orange and Red Onion Salad

There's not much in the garden yet except lettuce and arugula. At the end of February I started buttercrunch and romaine lettuce under glass in a planter on the deck. We've been having some great salads. I have a raised bed for arugula. It self-seeds so I always get an early crop. Then as the season warms up I'll plant more arugula. I buy seeds from different suppliers each year so I have a lot of different varieties of arugula. We eat a lot of it. I love oil cured black olives. They used to be hard to find, but now our local Shopper's Warehouse has them at their olive bar all the time. Yum!

Arugula, Orange and Red Onion Salad
4 servings
2 bunches arugula, washed and trimmed
1 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp. Fresh lemon juice
2 large navel oranges, peel and white pith removed, cut into segments
8 very thin slices red onion, separated into rings
12 or so pitted oil cured black olives
Freshly ground black pepper

Drizzle the arugula with half of the olive oil and the lemon juice; toss to coat and divide among 4 salad plates. Arrange the orange segments, olives and onions on top, dividing evenly. Drizzle with remaining oil and season with black pepper. You don't need any salt because of the olives.
