This beautiful salad has a beautiful array of colors that make this the perfect salad for a summer BBQ. I also used blood oranges for this salad since they are currently in season. They have a deep, rich red-orange color that compliments the dark green of the arugula.

What Is The Best Cheese For This Salad? 

The best cheese for this salad is creamy goat cheese since they have a more tart and earthy flavor. Goat cheese tends to have a stronger, deeper flavor that works well with fruits, including oranges and blueberries. If you do not like goat cheese, you can also substitute it with feta cheese, which is considered slightly less salty and has a less distinct flavor. You can also use vegan cheese alternatives to make this salad vegan.
