INGREDIENTS

  • 2 oz cream cheese USDA

  • 0 1/4 tsp fresh garlic FNDDS
  • 1 Tbsp butter, unsalted USDA
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach

  • 0 1/4 ea fresh avocado USDA
  • 10 gram(s) microgreens, sunflower
  • 1 tsp Tabasco hot sauce FNDDS

DIRECTIONS

Ingredient note: We used microgreens, a combination of sunflower, kale, cabbage and bok choy seedlings, in this recipe. Alfalfa sprouts or broccoli sprouts are good alternatives if microgreens are not available to you. 


  1. In a small bowl, use a fork to mix room temperature cream cheese, minced chives, and minced or pressed garlic until evenly combined.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, salt and pepper until frothy.
  3. In a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add spinach and sauté, stirring frequently until wilted, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, pour in eggs and stir until eggs are mostly set, about 3 minutes. Spread eggs into an even layer, tilt pan until visible liquid rolls to the edges, remove from heat, and cover until needed.
  4. Toast the cauliflower sandwich thins. 
  5. To assemble sandwiches, spread each sandwich thin evenly with cream cheese mixture, about 2 teaspoons on each. Top each of two sandwich thins with a slice of tomato (27 grams), one eighth of the avocado (17 grams), and a slice of red onion (14 grams). Uncover the eggs, fold in half, then cut into two equal portions. Place half of the egg on each of the loaded cauliflower rounds, top each with 1/8 cup microgreens, season with hot sauce if desired, and top with remaining cauliflower rounds. One serving is one sandwich as described.
