Crispy, Seasoned Arugula & Mango Salad With Pumpkin Seeds

I’m a salad lover any time of year.  Cooler weather I crave more spicy salads with arugula. On its own or mixed in with other greens, arugula makes a great salad with its peppery notes.  If you’re not a fan of arugula, try an organic baby salad mix containing arugula.  The peppery notes are toned down by the medley of flavors.  I went to Aldi to get a box of organic baby arugula but ended up buying baby arugula and spinach. I love baby spinach and had to try the combination. That’s my crispy base for the today’s salad. You can use organic baby arugula or a baby leaf mix including arugula.
