Arugula Recipes

Handful of fresh arugula
4-5 stalks asparagus, steamed and cut into 1" pieces
3 eggs
1 tsp dried thyme (your guess with fresh thyme); I also recommend summer savory
2 Tbsp milk
2 Tbsp bread crumbs
Feta cheese crumbles

Preheat broiler. In a small omelet pan, saute arugula in Tbsp oil or butter till wilted. In meantime beat eggs then mix in thyme and milk and pour over wilted arugula and cook until eggs are firm on bottom but gooey on top. Toss bread crumbs and cheese over asparagus then spread over omelet Broil until eggs and cheese are browned. 2-4 minutes. Serves 2
