BROCCOLI AND EGG SANDWICH
This was a specialty of my Grandma's. I remember when I was a kid she would sometimes make this for my mom to take for her lunch at work. Eventually Gram wound up sending about 6 sandwishes everytime because my mom's coworkers all wanted it when they smelled it. Grandma didn't measure anything, so these are estimates.

Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Carefully lower eggs into water with a slotted spoon and cook 8 minutes for medium-cooked or 9 minutes for hard-cooked. Transfer eggs with slotted spoon to a large bowl of ice water and let cool.
- Prepare a grill for high heat. (Or, heat a grill pan over high.) Place broccoli in a large bowl, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt and ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper over; toss to coat. Grill, undisturbed, until grill marks appear, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook on opposite side until charred in spots and broccoli is just tender, about 2 minutes.
- Peel eggs and coarsely chop; transfer to a medium bowl. Add pickles, scallions, mayonnaise, dill, mustard, 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper and mix well. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
- To serve, spoon egg salad on a platter and arrange broccoli on top. Drizzle with chili crisp as desired, then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with bread.
BROCCOLI SCRAMBLED EGGS- IT'S GOOD, I PROMISE!
I know this sounds a little different, I thought so too when my friend had me over for breakfast. You won't be disappointed...my DH even loves them! I have also used egg beaters for a lighter touch. This is now my favorite way to eat eggs!

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Broccoli: Select broccoli florets that are deep green in color and have tightly closed buds. Avoid florets that are yellow or have loose, open buds, as these may be past their prime.
- Cooking the Broccoli: Steaming or roasting are the best methods to cook broccoli for this sandwich. Steaming preserves the vibrant color and nutrients, while roasting brings out a slightly caramelized flavor. Avoid boiling broccoli, as it can make it mushy and waterlogged.
- Seasoning the Broccoli: Don't be afraid to season the broccoli generously. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon juice can enhance the flavor and make it more enjoyable.
- Choosing the Right Bread: A sturdy bread like sourdough or whole wheat is a good choice for this sandwich. It can hold up to the fillings without getting soggy. You can also use a croissant or bagel for a more decadent option.
- Adding Variety: Feel free to add other ingredients to your sandwich to make it more flavorful and satisfying. Sliced avocado, crumbled bacon, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze are all great options.
Conclusion:
The broccoli and egg sandwich is a delicious and versatile breakfast or lunch option that is packed with nutrients and flavor. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, it's a great choice for busy mornings or quick meals. By following the tips and experimenting with different variations, you can create a sandwich that perfectly suits your taste preferences and dietary needs. So, gather your ingredients, whip up a batch of these tasty sandwiches, and enjoy a healthy and satisfying meal that will leave you feeling energized and satisfied.
