Provided by Martha Stewart

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons honey mustard
2 1/2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons capers, rinsed and chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
6 ounces mesclun or other mixed salad greens
4 slices seven-grain bread
3/4 cup buckwheat or alfalfa sprouts, (optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk together 2 tablespoons water, oil, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, capers, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large saucepan, bring 2 inches of lightly salted water to a boil; reduce to a slow simmer. One at a time, carefully crack eggs into a shallow bowl, and slide gently into water. Poach for 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, blotting well on towel to drain.
  • While eggs are poaching, toss greens with dressing. Toast bread, tear each slice into pieces, and toss with salad greens. Arrange on four plates, and top with a poached egg. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and garnish with sprouts if desired.
