Nutritional values
With plenty of vitamin C, arugula plays in the top league as a boost for the immune system. Important: the fresher the leaves, the higher the vitamin content.
If you like, you can also use salmon fillet instead of chicken for the filling. This also fits wonderfully in terms of taste and brings variety and healthy omega-3 fatty acids into play.
