This savoury Warm Crispy Mushroom Arugula Salad takes less than 30 min to prep and will be the fanciest looking dish at your next dinner party!
Have you ever eaten the most mouthwatering dish at a restaurant and thought, if only I could make this at home, I would eat so many delicious meals, every single day. Well, the foodie in me lives for finding inspiration from dishes like that.
I recently ordered a warm mushroom arugula salad at Terroni’s, one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto and it was just so perfect that I knew I had to make a HealthNut version to share.
This fancy, savoury and sweet salad combination is one your taste buds will love. Start with a bed of light greens tossed in sweet balsamic vinaigrette, then top with crispy mixed mushrooms. I have no doubt that it will impress all of your guests at your next dinner party, and even better, it takes less than 30 minutes to prep!
You can enjoy this yummy salad as a side, or sophisticate it up as a main dish with grilled fish or veggies and eat the whole thing. Because I may, or may not have done that once or twice already 😉
I love the combination of cooked and raw foods together, especially when it comes to salads. Whether it’s roasted butternut squash and kale, or crispy breaded mushrooms and arugula like this one, I’m all for the mix of temperatures on my plate. Sometimes the simplest things combined can become so flavourful and take your dish to the next level.
If you’re not a mushroom lover then:
a) Try some different kinds because chances are you haven’t found the right one yet for you, or
b) swap out the mushrooms for other veggies like eggplant or zucchini and you’ll have created just as savoury of a dish.
Enjoy!

This so delicious. I love mushroom. This is i think a best part of my diet list.
I’ve made this salad twice now after having had it at Stock in TO, and becoming OBSESSED😉 It is delicious!
That’s great to hear! Glad you’re enjoying.
This is incredible! I have arugula salads every week, but it’s nice to try something new with it every now and then! Adding the brown rice breadcrumbs will definitely give the salad a super nice crunch and flavor to everything!
