Shrimp, Orange and Arugula Salad

Salads, Salads, Salads.
This salad travels well thanks to hardy arugula and not much vinegar, which is often the cause of wilty lettuce. Arugula (also called rocket) is a peppery green with stout stems that resembles dandelion greens. If you cannot find arugula, use tender fresh spinach leaves instead.
