Grilled Fig & Arugula Salad
June 25, 2016
the girl & the fig salad has been on their menu since they opened in 1997. Now you can make it at home when you purchase their Fig & Port Vinaigrette. If your fig trees are not between harvests, you might still have an abundance and be looking for tasty things to do with all of them. If you want to make this salad during the fig's off season, substitute 1 ounce chopped figs per salad.
