This sounds delicious! I hadn’t thought to add arugula to pasta before. Glad to learn that arugula is rocket (rocket is what they call it here in Ireland). Thanks
I’m a big fan of arugula! Didn’t know of all its healthy benefits. I like to make a base of arugula, add a cooked grain and top it with a poached egg for a quick and easy breakfast.
