Anyway, we sometimes substitute spinach or diced cucumbers for the arugula (rocket) in this dish. The cukes are particularly nice.

Oh yum! I'm not a huge fan of rocket (arugula) unless it is really fresh baby leaves but i can see it would add a wondrous flavour. cheers sherrySherry's Pickingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12115648682007275136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249095902319557066.post-36743656998744381982019-07-03T10:26:44.933-05:002019-07-03T10:26:44.933-05:00Hi Kelly, isn't this nice?
