Arugula and Broad Beans Open Sandwich

This open sandwich features a gentle, yet sophisticated play of flavors for your tastebuds. The bitterness of the arugula contrasted with the rich taste of the broad beans is a delicious pairing. Pair with a cold white wine, or enjoy as a light summer breakfast.
