Brassicas Bowl Recipe

Brassicas Bowl Recipe

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