Mixed Salad With Boiled Eggs And Buckwheat Recipe

Buckwheat Preparation

Start by rinsing the buckwheat under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, bring water to a boil and add the buckwheat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the buckwheat is tender but still has a bit of bite to it. Drain any excess water and set aside to cool.

Boiling the Eggs

Place the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let it stand for 9-12 minutes. Drain the eggs and immediately place them in ice water to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them.

Preparing the Salad

Wash and dry the lettuce, tomato, and cucumber. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces, slice the tomatoes and cucumbers. In a large mixing bowl, combine the lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Add the cooled buckwheat and gently toss the salad. Slice the boiled eggs and place them on top of the salad.

Final Touches

Spread mayonnaise or cream cheese on a slice of bread. Garnish the salad with finely chopped green onions. The meal is ready to serve. Enjoy your healthy mixed salad with boiled eggs and buckwheat with a side of creamy bread.
