- ⅞ oz roasted peanuts
- 1⅛ tbsp balsamic vinegar

Steps
- Lower 2 large eggs into boiling water. Simmer 9 minutes for jammy-firm yolks, then cool them in cold water and peel.
- Wash and dry 4¼ oz arugula. Cut 3½ oz cucumber into bite-size pieces. Whisk the dressing ingredients until they look combined.
