Simple Arugula Citrus Breakfast Salad

The perfect breakfast is low in sugar and contains protein, healthy fats and plenty of fiber. The combination of these macronutrients ensures that our blood sugars are stable helping to keep us appropriately fueled for our day. Give this simple salad a try. The citrus provides sweetness and acidity to balance the bitter greens. I like to serve this salad with a piece protein to round out the meal.
