Apricots are just coming into season and we are enjoying them! They can be hard to find the rest of the year (especially organic) and when you do, they just don’t taste the same. If you can’t find apricots yet, fresh peaches or nectarines can sub very nicely in this salad. The combination of the sweet apricots, the peppery arugula and the tangy balsamic vinaigrette makes this simple apricot and arugula salad taste absolutely marvelous.
