   1       lb           Spaghetti

   6                    Shallots -- chopped -OR-
   4       cl           Garlic -- chopped
   2       tb           Olive oil
   2       c            Tomatoes -- chopped
                        Salt
                        Red pepper flakes or cayenne --
                        - to taste

  Cook the pasta until almost al dente; add the arugula, cook for a
  few moments & then drain. Meanwhile, lightly saute the shallots or
  garlic in the olive oil. Add the tomatoes. Cook over high heat
  until the sauce thickens, then season with the salt & hot pepper
  flakes or cayenne. Toss the pasta & arugula with the tomato sauce &
  serve immediately.

  Variations:

  Add the arugula to the tomato sauce rather than the pasta. Use
  wholewheat pasta instead of spaghetti & broccoli tops instead of
  the arugula. This will need more red pepper flakes. Finish with a
  sprinkling of fresh herbs such as basil or oregano.
