Servings: 2-4
Time: 15 minutes
Method:
Wash the zucchinis thoroughly, trim off the ends, and use a mandolin or a sharp knife to slice them thinly. If you prefer a more rustic look, you can also use a vegetable peeler to create ribbons.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchinis and arugula.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the zucchini and arugula mixture. Toss well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
Add the roasted and chopped hazelnuts to the salad. Mix them in gently. Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the salad. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
Toss everything together one final time to combine all the flavours and serve!
