Why I’m never buying store bought arugula ever again: 1️⃣ In grocery stores you only ever see baby arugula, which is just regular arugula harvested young (less nutrients!) 2️⃣ Grocery store arugula is grown fast and shipped long distances, which makes it taste sharper and more bitter 3️⃣ Homegrown arugula grows slower, in better soil, with less stress, so the flavor is peppery and balanced, not harsh 4️⃣ Full grown, homegrown arugula is more nutrient-dense because it has more time to absorb minerals from the soil and isn’t sitting out in a box for days You don’t need a whole garden box like this, just a pot, good soil, water and sunshine is enough! 🥗 Salad: Fresh arugula Cherry tomatoes Orecchiette Toasted pine nuts Lemon juice & zest wearebrightland salad oil Salt & pepper #arugulasalad #arugula #raisedgardenbed #pastasalad #herbgarden
