I'm not a big fan of arugula so when a lovely bunch appeared in my csa I tried this recipe. It's deceptively simple but a wonderful balance of flavors. I made it with brown rice which gave it a sweet, nutty flavor. The salty olives and lemon juice played nicely with the sulphury arugula. It was even good a day later.
