Ingredients:

1 clove garlic -- peeled
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup olive oil
2 cups mixed lettuce leaves
1 cup arugula -- stems removed
1/2 pound mushrooms -- sliced
1 medium sweet red pepper
 

Preparation:

In a wooden salad bowl, rub garlic and salt into the bowl to season it. Combine vinegar, mustard and olive oil; stir. Tear lettuce into bite sized pieces, along with arugula. Add mushrooms and slices of red pepper. Toss well and serve. Ogden writes: "Italian restaurants often serve arugula on its own with a strong garlic flavored oil and vinegar dressing. Mixed with milder greens and a good dressing, arugula is less dominating." Recipe developed by Ellen Ogden. In "The Cook's Garden" catalo
