Breakfast Croissant-wich
with raspberry bellini / fruit salad
We wanted to offer a festive brunch-inspired option this week in case you'd like to serve it for Mother's Day over the weekend. But these croissant sandwiches would be just as fun in the evening as a breakfast-for-dinner meal.
Smarts: Feel free to skip the raspberry bellini if you'd prefer. You can also make a non-alcoholic / kid-friendly version by using sparkling apple cider.

Make
- Divide raspberry puree between glasses or champagne flutes. Drop reserved raspberries on top. Set aside.
- Gently stir together berries (for fruit salad), kiwis, lemon juice (for fruit salad), poppy seeds, and honey. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Set out croissants, tomatoes, and avocados so that you are ready to assemble sandwiches as soon as the eggs are done cooking.
- Heat a nonstick pan with butter over low-medium heat. Add eggs and scramble gently (for very soft, tender scrambled eggs, leave the heat fairly low and let the eggs cook slowly) until just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
- As soon as eggs are cooked, remove the pan from heat and gently fold in chives. Top warm eggs with cheese slices and let sit for a minute until cheese is melted.
- Toast croissants.
- Assemble sandwiches by filling croissants with tomatoes, eggs, and avocados.
- Pour prosecco into glasses with raspberry puree.
- Serve sandwiches with fruit salad and bellinis on the side. Enjoy!
