How to Make an Easy Grape, Plum, and Arugula Salad with Toasted Pecans

To take a break from the usual salads filled with tomatoes, which seem to be peaking now, I decided to try a salad with summer fruits instead. In this salad, sweet red grapes and juicy red plums combine with slightly bitter and peppery arugula. The salad is dressed simply with a light vinaigrette. A little feta cheese adds creamy texture and saltiness to offset some of the sweetness of the fruit. Toasted pecans add a great crunch to the salad as well as sweet, nutty flavor. Enjoy!
