Brassicas Bowl

From the kitchen of Carly

Charred broccolini and shredded brussels sprouts pile onto a bed of massaged kale, all bound in a bright mustard vinaigrette. Top with halved soft-boiled eggs for golden, runny yolks. A bowl that proves green vegetables deserve to be the main event.

Ingredients

4 servings

  • 14 large eggs
  • 11 bunch broccolini, trimmed
  • 15 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1Kosher salt
  • 11 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 12 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 11 tablespoon whole grain mustard
  • 11/2 bunch curly kale, ribs and stems removed, leaves torn into 2-inch pieces (about 8 cups)
  • 18 ounces brussels sprouts, trimmed, thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 1Freshly ground black pepper
  • 11/2 cup unsalted, roasted sunflower seeds, divided
  • 11/2 cup hummus
  • 11 avocado, quartered lengthwise
  • 12 tablespoons finely chopped chives
  • 11 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 1Crushed red pepper flakes (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Cook eggs in a large saucepan of boiling water for 7 minutes (whites will be set and yolks still slightly soft). Drain; transfer to a bowl of ice water and let sit until cool. Drain; peel eggs and cut in half lengthwise. Set aside.

  2. Preheat oven to 500°F. Toss broccolini with 1 Tbsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt. Roast, turning occasionally, until crisp-tender and charred in spots, 8, 10 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop.

  3. Whisk shallot, vinegar, mustard, and remaining 4 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl until emulsified; season with salt. Add kale and brussels sprouts and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Massage kale until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add roasted broccolini and 2 Tbsp. sunflower seeds; toss again.

  4. Swipe some hummus along the inside of each bowl with a spoon. Divide salad among bowls and add an avocado wedge and 2 reserved egg halves to each. Top with chives, sesame seeds, and remaining sunflower seeds; sprinkle with red pepper flakes.
