BREAKFAST SALAD



Breakfast Salad image

From the same trend that brought us avocado toast, the breakfasts served in Australian cafes often include bright vegetables arranged in eye-catching ways. Salad is definitely not part of the traditional American breakfast menu, but on a sunny morning the combination of chilled, crunchy greens; protein-rich cheese and eggs; and an eye-opening dressing is hugely appealing. This one was created at Carthage Must Be Destroyed, an airy (and slightly eccentric) Australian-style cafe hidden behind an unmarked entrance in Brooklyn. The chef and owner Amanda Bechara likes to leave the lettuce leaves whole to make it easier to eat with your fingers. (You can prepare the vegetables the day before, and skip marinating the feta if you must.) This would also make a lovely lunch.

Time 12h30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ounces feta cheese (not crumbled), preferably a creamy type made with some sheep's milk
1 garlic clove, smashed and peeled
1 dozen black or mixed peppercorns, coarsely cracked
Extra-virgin olive oil, preferably cold-pressed
2 large hearts romaine lettuce, outer leaves removed
2 lemons, halved
1 avocado, halved, pit removed
About 2 ounces sprouts, such as alfalfa, clover or rainbow
2 mini or Kirby cucumbers, cut into spears or sliced
2 or 3 hard-boiled eggs, at room temperature, peeled and halved
Flaky salt and coarsely ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 handfuls soft herbs, such as basil, chives, cilantro and mint
Sourdough toast, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • A day before serving, marinate the cheese: Place feta in a small container with a tight-fitting lid. Add garlic clove and peppercorns. Pour in enough olive oil to just cover the cheese. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Wash and crisp the lettuce: Fill a deep bowl with very cold water, hold the lettuce heart by the stem, dip it in and swish it gently to loosen any dirt. Lift out and let drain upside down. Repeat with the other heart. Cut off the white stem ends and gently unfurl each romaine heart onto a large plate. Use your fingers to fluff and separate the leaves, but try to keep the natural formation intact.
  • Squeeze half a lemon over each lettuce heart. Use a spoon to scoop chunks of avocado on top. Place tufts of sprouts among the romaine leaves. Place cucumber pieces and egg halves near the base of the lettuce. Add about 6 chunks of cheese.
  • Liberally sprinkle the plate with flaky salt and black pepper, then splash on plenty of olive oil, making sure to hit the egg, cheese and avocado. (You can use the oil used to marinate the feta, if you like.) Tuck the herb leaves in among the lettuce leaves or just sprinkle them over the top. Place the remaining lemon halves near the egg halves.
  • Serve with warm toast if you like. At the table, squeeze lemon over the salad and eat with a knife and fork, or with your hands.

  • Poached Egg and Avocado Breakfast Salad. What’s not to love with creamy avocado, crispy greens, crunchy walnuts, and a perfectly poached egg? There’s no need for salad dressing once you break into that tender yolk.
  • Sweet Potato Kale Breakfast Salad. When one thinks of breakfast, kale does not likely come to mind. Here’s a breakfast that you can make to prepare for the long week ahead.
  • Savory Breakfast Salad. An unlikely pairing of summer fruits and veggies transforms essential greens into something bright and flavorful. Any leafy greens work as a base in this recipe and work wonderfully with sauteed sweet potatoes and blueberries.
  • Blueberry Breakfast Salad. Conquer the food pyramid before you even change out of your PJs! Blueberries and eggs make a fantastic duo. The tartness of blueberries adds volume and bright flavors to this simple scramble salad.
  • Fall Breakfast Salad. Salads aren’t just for lunch, and they aren’t just for summer. Using those seasonal fall veggies is a great way to ease into sweater weather.
  • Healthy Breakfast Salad. If Greek salads are your go-to meal, this healthy breakfast salad is a morning take on this Mediterranean classic. The best part of this breakfast salad is that it whips together in a snap.
  • Easy Sauteed Breakfast Salad. Just look at all of those greens! This easy sauteed salad looks like something from those fancy bistros designed for unapologetic morning people.
  • Pomegranate Fruit Salad. Looking for something a little sweeter? Give eggs and greens the morning off with this bright and colorful pomegranate fruit salad.
  • Breakfast Egg Salad with Bacon. Calling all bacon addicts! Bacon for breakfast is typically reserved for the weekend because it makes a bit of a mess.
  • Bright Berry Salad. When I get fruit salad at a restaurant, I always sift through the filler fruit (looking at you, melon!) for the berries. Berries not only taste better than melon (in my humble option), but they’re chock full of beneficial vitamins and nutrients.
