    • Arugula Salad Topping
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)

    In a small mixing bowl, combine all of the arugula salad ingredients and set aside.

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Place one bagel half cut side down on one side of the skillet.

    On the other side of the skillet, sprinkle half of the parmesan cheese into a circle about the size of the bagel. Flip the bagel over to lightly toast the other side.
  4. 4
    Spoon pesto over the melted parmesan and let it cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. 5
    Place the bagel cut side down directly on top of the parmesan pesto mixture. Crack an egg into the center hole of the bagel.

    Cook until the egg reaches your desired doneness (3-6 additional minutes). Remove from the pan, top with the arugula salad, and enjoy immediately.
