When Chicken Salad Meets a Fried Egg


fried egg with chicken salad
While I usually save my kitchen adventures for the evening, on Wednesday, I decided to experiment early. I knew that I wanted an egg, but I also wanted to use up leftovers. I had some leftover chicken salad from the night before, and since it was not enough to make a substantial sandwich, I decide to combine it with my egg craving.

We pile foods into out omelets, so why not tackle the same idea for fried eggs? Once I saw that I had a two-yolker on my hands, the plan was set -- one sunny side up egg, on top of chicken salad (slightly warmed so not fridge-cold), on top of toast with cheese. It was quick and simple -- only requiring the time it took to make the toasted cheese.

As for the flavor -- le yum! It gives an added boost to the sometimes-too-little egg on toast, and makes for a wonderfully easy and filling breakfast. It might sound strange, but it's darned good.

What's your strangest egg + food pairing?

Tip of the Day

December may have peppermint bark, but have you thought to incorporate the taste of autumn into white chocolate with a rich pumpkin swirl?
