Equipment

Ingredients

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 cups baby arugula
2 cups thinly sliced white mushrooms
1 cup halved grape tomatoes
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
1/4 cup sliced black olives, optional
1 ounce Parmesan Cheese (preferably Parmigiano Reggiano, at room temperature)

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, water, olive oil, salt and pepper until well blended.
In a large bowl combine the arugula, sliced mushrooms, grape tomato halves, sliced onions, and olives if using.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad a little at a time, tossing well to coat everything with the dressing. (You may need less dressing than you have, especially if you prefer your salads lightly dressed.)
Using a vegetable peeler, shave very thin slices of Parmesan on top of the salad and serve immediately.

I love the peppery taste of arugula, but if you don't you could always use baby spinach or mesclun instead. A few sliced black olives make a tasty addition too.
