An Egg Salad Sandwich and Lots of Sprouts in My Kitchen

March 31, 2009
Egg Salad Sandwich

I realize that poaching eggs and making a flax seed sauce might not be a priority on everyone's list of things to do, so I thought I would share another recipe for healthy hair. The main point is to get lots of protein, healthy fats, and vitamins. This is a simple egg salad sandwich that you can prepare in 15 minutes or so.

Hard boil 2 eggs. Once they cool, peel them and mash them up with 1 tablespoon of stone ground mustard and 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season with salt and paprika or another chile powder. Toast a whole wheat bun or sprouted grain bread. Mash up 1/4 of a Hass avocado and spread it on the bun. Top with the egg mixture, and follow with something green. I put seaweed on mine(pictured), but I found that seaweed at some random Korean grocery store in Queens, so I would say you can just use lettuce or sprouts for crunch instead. I also like to add some red onion that has been mellowed out in water with lime juice. Slice the onion and let it sit in a bowl of water with the juice of half a lime for 5 minutes.

On another note, I am getting ready for a presentation at a library on Thursday. I have to sprout a lot of beans in order to prepare for the event, and I am starting to get a bit worried. That same night I will be serving up some more sprouts at the City Year event. Until then there will be lots of sprouted peas up in my kitchen!

We love egg salad sandwiches, and this looks so good and healthy. As they say: Where's the bacon?

You have definitely kicked this egg salad up a notch or two. Bookmarked!
