Oh happy day! This morning I tried a new thing - making Eggs Beneditine, which combines the best of Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine.
Eggs: Drop a 1/2 Tablespoon of butter in as many ramekins as you need eggs, and then put the ramekins in a skillet. Add 1/2 inch water to the skillet and bring to a gentle simmer. Crack an egg in each ramekin once the butter is melted, and cover with foil or a lid. Cook for 4-7 minutes, until desired yolk doneness.
Canadian Bacon and Spinach: Put a pat of butter in a small non-stick skillet. Place Canadian bacon in skillet with a handful of fresh spinach on top. Cook gently until the spinach wilts a bit.

To assemble, warm an English muffin or your favorite bread (I used 1/2 of a Central Market cheddar scone.) Place Canadian bacon and spinach on the bread, followed by the poached egg and sauce.
If you try this, send me a picture so we can share the love of this yummo breakfast!
This bite is on its way to its final reward.
