By tammy1365

Ingredients

• 3 T whole almonds
• 1 lb summer squash (a mix of green and yellow)
• 2-1/2 T extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 T fresh lemon juice
• 1 minced garlic clove
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Baby arugula

Preparation

Step 1

Roast almonds and coarsely crush. Meanwhile, trim the ends off summer squash. Using a vegetable peeler, thinly slice the squash lengthwise into strips and transfer to a large bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic clove, and kosher salt to taste. Pour dressing over squash. Let stand for a few minutes, then add a few handfuls of baby arugula. Shave a little Pecorino over the squash and toss. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with the crushed almonds.
