Summer harvest tartine: When all your local organic produce are at their best, throw everything on toast, and put a free-range egg on it!

Ingredients

  • 2 slices fresh organic bread of your choice
  • 1 organic green zucchini (small) sliced in ribbons with a peeler
  • 1 organic yellow zucchini or Patty Pan (small) sliced
  • 1/2 carrots julienned
  • 2-3 Tbsp fresh peas (shelled)
  • 2 baby beets washed, cut in bite-size pieces
  • 1/4 cup beet greens washed, chopped in large pieces
  • 1 garlic cloves minced
  • 5 organic cherry tomatoes washed, cut in half
  • 2 organic free-range eggs
  • sea salt a few pinches
  • extra-virgin olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large pan over medium heat, add some good quality extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil, and sauté the carrots and yellow zucchini for about 3-5 minutes. You want them to stay crunchy but just have a nice roasted look. Add a pinch of salt, mix, and put aside in a plate.
  2. In the same pan, add a bit more olive oil, throw the beet greens, beet pieces and garlic, and sauté for 3-5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, mix, and set aside.
  3. While this is cooking, toast the slices of bread, and put a medium-size pot with water filled halfway to boil. Add a generous amount of lemon juice, reduce temperature to just over medium heat, then drop the eggs in the water, one at a time, as close to the water as you can. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then remove from water with a slotted spoon.
  4. Assemble: put the toasts on a plate, then put raw ribbons of green zucchini on top, cooked beet greens, carrots and yellow zucchini slices, fresh peas, poached egg on top, a few cherry tomatoes around.
  5. Enjoy immediately!
