Mark Hyman, MD

Serves 2

A little different for breakfast, these sandwiches are very filling and would also make a nice light lunch. The fresh minced herbs and sun-dried tomato add variety, flavor, and color to the eggs. Be sure to use 100 percent whole kernel rye bread for a delicious gluten-free sandwich..

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 teaspoons minced sun-dried tomato (drained and patted dry if oil packed)
  • 1 teaspoon minced chives
  • 1 teaspoon minced parsley
  • 1 teaspoon minced tarragon
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4 (1-ounce) slices whole-kernel rye bread or gluten-free bread, toasted

 

Preparation:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, tomato, chives, parsley, tarragon, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring, until the eggs are set to the desired degree of doneness.
  3. Lay 2 slices of the toast on a plate or cutting board. Place half the eggs on each slice.
  4. Top with the remaining 2 slices of toast. Cut each sandwich in half, and serve hot.
