with Arugula and Garlic Croutons
We've taken the classic Italian antipasto and made it a meal for two! Croutons are pan-fried with garlic oil, then tossed with arugula and juicy tomatoes and topped with creamy Parmesan and fresh basil. A final drizzle of balsamic glaze and you're all set for date night!
