Fresh and peppery arugula is topped with ripe, juicy plums, grape tomatoes, spiced pumpkin seeds and toasted pine nuts with a maple curry vinaigrette. Simple, delicious and flavourful--what's not to love? If desired, add a salty, creamy and chunky blue cheese or a few slices of mild, soft rinded uniquely tangy goat cheese to make it more satisfying and exciting. I used red plums here, but it would work with most plums.

- Combine ACV, shallot, ginger, curry powder, and honey in a blender. Let stand 15 minutes for curry powder to bloom. Process on high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. With blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt, and set aside.
- Arrange tomatoes, plums, arugula and fresh herbs if using, in a large serving platter. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of dressing over and sprinkle with some pepita and pine nuts.
