Potato Arugula Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Potatoes: Put an oven rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a heavy baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray. Put the potatoes and the olive oil in a medium bowl and toss until coated. Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Roast until golden, about 35 to 40 minutes Remove the potatoes from the oven and set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
• Salad: Peel and trim the ends from each orange. Using a paring knife, cut along the membrane on both sides of each segment. Free the segments and add them to a salad bowl. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into a small bowl and reserve 1 tablespoon of juice for the dressing. Add the arugula, Gorgonzola, walnuts and the cooled potatoes to the salad bowl.
• Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, reserved orange juice, vinegar, and orange zest until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Add the dressing to the potato mixture and toss well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Lightly oil 2 baking sheets.
• Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll and stretch each portion of dough into an oval (rustic is fine) about 11 inches long by 6 inches wide. Place 2 rounds each on the prepared baking sheets.
• Toss the potatoes, onions, garlic and thyme in a medium bowl with 2 tablespoons of the oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Divide the mixture among the 4 crusts and sprinkle with the grated cheese. Bake until the crusts are golden and crisp and the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the arugula with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Top the warm pizzas with the salad and some Parmesan shavings. Serve with salami and/or prosciutto to complete the meal.

• In a large bowl, combine the cooled sweet potatoes, arugula and scallions. In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the lemon juice and Parmesan; season with salt and pepper. Just before serving, toss the dressing with the sweet potato and arugula mixture to coat.
