Spinach Avocado Eggs Benedict
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 English muffins, split and toasted
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 2 cups fresh spinach, washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- Hollandaise sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
- Crack one egg into a small bowl. Using a spoon, create a whirlpool in the simmering water and carefully slide the egg into the center. Poach for 3-4 minutes, until the white is set but the yolk is still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain. Repeat with the remaining eggs.
- While the eggs are poaching, prepare the Hollandaise sauce according to your favorite recipe or using a store-bought mix.
- To assemble, place a handful of fresh spinach on each toasted English muffin half. Top with sliced avocado and a poached egg. Spoon Hollandaise sauce over the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
