Arugula Salad with Black Bean, Sweet Potato and Poached Egg

I love a poached egg on anything! This super fast, nutrient pack meal is perfect for a rushed weeknight.  The amounts are easily adjusted to feed just yourself or your family! No more excuses about not eating healthy when cooking for only one!! 

Ingredients:
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 c black beans (or 1 can, remember to rinse well)
1 bunch arugula
1 lemon
1 Tbs olive oil
Salt and Pepper
2 eggs
Parmesan cheese

Method:
Preheat oven to 400F.  Peel and slice sweet potatoes into 1/4-1/2 inch disks.  Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper and place in preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, turning once. 
Squeeze the juice from the lemon and use about 2 Tbs to 1 Tbs olive oil, mixed well.  Massage into arugula.  
Plate arugula then top with sweet potatoes, black beans and 1 poached egg on top.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and a small bit of freshly shaved parmesan.
