Eggs Benedict has to be one of my favorite breakfasts…. Actually I will make it for dinner sometimes too.
This is a perfect Sunday breakfast… serve it with fresh fruit salad and some good coffee… hmmm … perfect way to spend a Sunday morning.
I previously posted a recipe for Classic Hollandaise Sauce and a Slimmed Down Version.

Eggs Benedict Recipe
All you need:
English muffins, split and toasted
Butter or margarine
Canadian bacon slices, grilled or thin sliced deli baked ham
Poached eggs
Hollandaise Sauce
All you need to do:
For each person, you need 1 English muffin, split and toasted. Butter each half and place on a plate.
Place 1 slice of Canadian bacon on each half of muffin.
Place a poached egg on top of each slice of Canadian bacon.
Top with hollandaise sauce.
I like to garnish with a few snips of fresh chives or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper.

Breakfast is BIG at our house but I've never even tried to make eggs benedict. Thanks for the sauce post, I think this will be on the menue tomorrow.
Breakfast is BIG here too... I like it for supper sometimes...
Enjoy your Eggs Benedict... have the Classic one... yummm
You could also use a Knorr sauce packet.... they really are pretty good... I've made their hollandaise... and you can use skim milk... if you want it light..
(I know... horrors... using a convenience sauce mix... when you're in a rush and don't want to fool with it... it's not a bad substitute)
Love your blog!!A shortcut Hollandaise...2 egg yolks, 1tbls. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. dry mustard, 1/8tsp. salt.... put into blender container, then, in a glass measuring cup, place 1/4 lb. of butterµwave 1-2 mins. until hot&bubbly...turn blender onto high and GRADUALLY add butter until creamy&thick...makes about 1/2 cup.
