Ingredients

  • 7 ounces arugula leaves, cleaned
  • 1 ½ pounds yukon gold potatoes (4-5 medium sized potatoes)
  • 4 each large eggs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup honey mustard dressing or dressing of your choice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Peel and cut potatoes into squares approximately ½” x ½” x ¼”. The size is not so important but you want them to be fairly consistent so they cook evenly.

  2. Place large frying pan over medium high heat. Add 1 tbsp of oil. Add the eggs to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Flip the eggs OR cover the pan and cook for about 3 minutes until the egg white is opaque and the yolks are firm. Remove from the pan to cool.

  3. Add the remaining oil to the pan and add the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and turn the heat to medium.

  4. Every 3-4 minutes stir the potatoes and adjust the heat so they are sizzling but not browning too fast. It will take about 15 minutes for the potatoes to be fully cooked. You can test them by piercing with a fork. The fork should go into the potato easily.
  5. Remove the pan from the heat when the potatoes are tender and allow to cool slightly.
  6. Add the arugula to your salad bowl. Cut the eggs into 3/4 to inch squares and add to bowl. Place the warm potatoes in bowl. Drizzle on the dressing, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and some fresh ground pepper if desired, and toss before serving.

  7. We love this salad with our 5 minute honey mustard dressing ( which can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for weeks ) and our easy homemade no knead bread!
