Grilled Vegetable Salad with a Fried Egg

June 23, 2016 · 8 Comments

Grilled Vegetable Salad with a Fried EggLeftover grilled veggies are perfect for a next day meal, whether eaten alone, in a wrap, or atop a salad and I’ve got a very simple, quick and delicious summer salad for you today. It takes your leftover grilled vegetables and combines it with a freshly charred avocado and cherry tomatoes, a fried egg, and tons of fresh herbs. It’s great to enjoy the next day, if you’re like me and always make more grilled vegetables than needed. Of course this a great salad to make the same day you grill your veggies, but just as perfect for leftovers too, how yummy would grilled corn be!

I used grilled zucchini and eggplant, which had been seasoned with lemon, fresh tarragon and parsley. To put the salad together, quickly char heirloom cherry tomatoes with more fresh herbs until they began to burst and gain those signature grill marks. Then reheat your grilled veggies in the same pan and top it all onto a bed of spinach. I love using spinach because the warm veggies slightly wilts it, making it a semi-warm salad.

The final touch, well one of them, is to grill the avocado which can often become messy when grilled, so make sure it is pretty firm and dredged well in olive oil. Slice the grilled avocado atop the veggies alongside a crispy fried egg. Whether you leave the yolk center runny or not, that’s your choice, but I highly recommend leaving it runny so that you can break it and make a delicious yolky dressing. Finish your grilled vegetable salad with a drizzle of good olive oil, dash of balsamic, and a handful of different herbs, like my favorites of basil and fresh tarragon.

A quite simple dish, yet has quickly become my favorite summer salad!

Welcoming Spring w. a Disco Tea Party !!🌸🪩 Welcoming Spring w. a Disco Tea Party !!🌸🪩

If there was a “party theme” that best describes me, I think it would be this.  A delicate explosion of psychedelic pastel blooms & pretty vintage tea cups, colorful retro glasses happily scattered amongst the disco ball reflections — ready to be filled w. the spirit you fancy best to sip & dance on the grass from sunset to moonrise to sunrise, as if at a Grand Ball, Woodstock or Studio54 …

This tablescape best showcases my love of all things 70’s; an era whose soul inspires me & is much of what I love … where delicate & wild flowers are flower power!

Then there’s the romantic at heart; who loves all things intricate vintage details, lush gardens, gilded affairs & tea parties brimming w. classical melodies.

I quite love this Spring styling & you can read/see more of it on the Blog now✨ … follow link in bio
