Here is a simple summer salad that can be made in minutes. The green and yellow squash are beautiful shaved on the mandolin and a perfect compliment to the tangy lemon vinaigrette and salty pecorino. Light, refreshing, and delicious.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in the olive oil to combine. Add a generous squeeze of honey, about a teaspoon or two, a large pinch of sea salt, and some freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine. Taste. Add more honey or salt as necessary.
To assemble the salad, arrange the arugula at the bottom of a large serving dish. Scatter the thinly sliced zucchini and yellow squash on top. Add the shaved pecorino romano or shave it directly over the squash. Sprinkle a tablespoon or so of fresh parsley leaves. Drizzle some of the dressing over the salad. Toss and add more dressing if necessary.
