Updated steak and eggs, then egg salad with pancakes

The dish steak and eggs conjures up a large slab of meat with a fried egg on top, a hearty diner breakfast sure to satisfy you for the day. In this version of steak and eggs, chopped hard-cooked eggs are sprinkled over strip steak, like the classic garnish mimosa, served with zucchini rounds in vinaigrette to create a lighter dish.

Save some eggs for a Dijon-flavored egg salad to serve with buckwheat pancakes, a variation on blini. Think of this second meal as a mash-up of elegant canape and favorite lunch, all rolled into a good dinner.
