The only thing better than discovering blackberries on sale is discovering that they are also the sweetest and juiciest blackberries you’ve ever tasted. The next time this happens to you (I hope it’s soon!) than you should buy up the crate. You’ll have enough to eat plain, until your fingers are stained purple, and enough to make this incredible salad.
The players: peppery arugula, zesty lime, fresh mint, sweet blackberries, creamy avocado, roasted pumpkin seeds and crunchy jicama. This is good y’all. If you don’t like arugula (but try another bite please?) this would be just as delicious with butter lettuce or spinach. Just make sure your blackberries are sweet and ripe and you’ll be a happy eater.
This salad is the perfect side to so many things you could (should) grill out for dinner tonight. Citrus salmon, juicy pork chops, green chili burgers, bone in chicken thighs, to name a few ideas. You could just as well have a few extra servings of this salad and call it good (maybe throw on some goat cheese for a little more heartiness?). Oh, and serve alongside a crusty loaf of bread? May I come over for dinner please?
