I joined my mom on a work trip this summer and had one of the best breakfasts I've ever had from Tatte in Boston.
Well... I didn't have it, my mom did but isn't it always the way that whatever your dining partner has is always 100x more appealing than what you ordered? Suffice to say, we shared this one.
We've been thinking about this incredible breakfast since we came back to Ottawa and have been trying to recreate the dish from a photo. I think we've done a damn good job near perfecting it. It's now one of our most made breakfasts. It fills you up but doesn't weigh you down and only takes 10 minuted to make. Light, fresh, and super delicious, it's a perfect way to start the day.
Easy Smoked Salmon & Avocado Tartine (The Bond Way!)
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients:
1-2Avocados (depending on the size), cubed
1 pack of smoked salmon
Handful of cherry tomatoes, quartered or halved depending on the size of your tomatoes
Very thinly sliced red onion
A splash of caper juice
1/2 tbsp of capers
A splash of olive oil
Fresh dill
Chives (optional)
Parsley (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Sour cream
Mayonnaise
4 pieces of toast - as a certified granola freak, I love Ezekiel Sprouted Grain Bread
Instructions:
Prepare your spread! Combine 1/2 cup of sour cream and 1/2 cup of mayo with 2 tbsp of Spyce Girlz Herbalicious Dip Mix.
Prepare the salad! In a medium bowl, add your cubed avocado(s), quarter a few handfuls of cherry tomatoes, 1/4 of a red onion sliced very thin, add a splash of caper juice, 1 tbsp of capers, a few sprigs of fresh dill, salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble! Generously spread your Herbalicious mixture on your toast, to your liking then top with smoked salmon. Divvy up the avocado tomato salad between the pieces of toast and top with additional dill, chives and/ or parsley!
Notes:
1. Tatte is a Boston brunch chain. Sorry, saying it's a "Boston brunch chain" really doesn't do the place much justice. It was listed o Oprah’s “Favorite Things” list in 2014 and was started by pastry chef and former film producer, Tzurit Or whose food is inspired by family brunches from her Israeli childhood. Tatte is also the Yiddish word for Daddy!
2. If you're gluten-free or looking for something a little more decadent, you can substitute the toast for frozen hash brown patties!
