This one dish meal is colorful, fresh, quick, easy, and delicious! Just right for one, especially after a trip to the Farmer's Market.

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup chopped tomato, about 1 small or 1/2 of a medium tomato
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels, lightly steamed or use a leftover ear of fresh corn on the cob
  • 1/4 cup sliced scallion, 1-2 scallions, depending on their size
  • 1 tablespoon chopped Flat Italian Parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 slice Rustic Whole Grain Bread such as Ciabatta or Round Italian Sliced Bread
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 Eggland’s Best large egg, hard cooked
Vegetarian Ready in 25 minutes, recipe by Barbara Seelig-Brown exclusively for Eggland's Best

Preparation

  • To Hard Cook Eggs:
    Place eggs in a pan just large enough to hold them in a single layer.  You don’t want them to move around a lot.  Add cold water to cover by 1 inch.  Bring to a boil.  Once the water comes to a boil, watch carefully. Boil 30 seconds – 1 minute.  Turn heat off and cover.  Let sit 18 minutes.  Note: Boiling the eggs too long results in a green ring around the yolk; however this is still safe to eat.
  • Mix together the tomato, corn, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.  Set aside to let the flavors blend.  This can be done ahead.
  • To Assemble:
  • Toast the bread and set it on a large plate.  Lay the spinach on top of the bread. Slice the egg into 5 - 6 slices and lay them on top of the spinach.  Spoon the tomato corn mixture onto the sandwich and serve.
