Eggs Benedict.

Just the thought of that delicious breakfasty food makes my mouth water, and gets me daydreaming about my next morning off.

It’s such a simple meal, but it’s so buttery and eggy and creamy and wonderful!

Not to mention versatile. I whipped up this Tomato & Eggs Florentine with Homemade Hollandaise Sauce on a whim a few weeks ago. We were sadly out of any sort of ham or bacon for me to use to make the original, but I had some big juicy tomatoes and fresh baby spinach that were willing to do their part to make our breakfast satisfying.

Whether it’s Eggs Benedict, Florentine, or Atlantic you’re craving, they all start with a perfectly poached egg. Poached eggs are one of those things that I generally avoided in the past, thanks to a low tolerance for being intimidated by food.

Luckily for us, our own Erin Kennedy knows how to poach a perfect egg, and shares her knowledge right here, which will make this recipe that much easier!

Believe it or not, Hollandaise Sauce isn’t as scary to make as it seems, either.

I know a lot of restaurants make this meal seem so fancy and difficult to master, but with such simple ingredients and easy directions, recreating it in your own kitchen is a breeze, and I guarantee your family will adore you for it!

  1. Yes please! I’ve been eggs benedict lately. It’s my favorite thing to get when I go out for breakfast, and I’ve been wanting to try making it at home. We’ve got a 3-day weekend this week, so maybe I’ll give this a try. It sounds incredible!
