  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Thaw puff pastry on a floured surface and bring eggs to room temperature.

  3. Brush the pastry with an egg wash and sprinkle with Everything But The Bagel seasoning. Bake for 10 minutes.

  6. In a bowl, toss arugula with olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
