with fried eggs / green salad

Active: 35 Total: 35
Our two weeks of Olympics-inspired meals finish up tonight with a trip to France! We've put a vegetarian twist on the French bistro favorite Croque Madame. Warm, open-faced hummus and cheese sandwiches are topped with fried eggs while a fresh salad adds crunch and sweetness on the side. This meal was praised as simple and satisfying when it was last featured in 2019.

Make

  1. Turn on the oven's broiler (use the lowest broiler setting if your oven has multiple settings).
  2. While oven heats, whisk together vinegar, mustard, honey, and olive oil in a large mixing bowl. Top with lettuce and apples (wait to toss salad until just before serving).
  3. Slice English muffins in half. Line a sheet pan with foil and place English muffins on pan, cut-side up. Broil English muffins until just starting to turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Remove English muffins from oven and spread with hummus. Top each half with cheese. Return pan to oven and continue broiling until cheese is melted and starting to brown on top (watch it closely to prevent burning).
  5. While English muffins toast, heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and then crack eggs into heated oil. Season eggs with some salt and pepper. Fry eggs to desired doneness (cook on one side for sunny-side up, or flip and cook on both sides).
  6. Divide English muffins between serving plates, leaving them open-faced. Top each pair of English muffins with a fried egg. Toss salad and serve on the side. Enjoy!
