    Quick & Easy Eggs Benedict for Two

    Author: Kita Roberts

    Ingredients

    • 3 tbs sour cream
    • 2 tbs milk
    • 1 teas Dijon mustard
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 whole grain English muffin
    • few slices of ham
    • 1 to mato sliced
    • fresh chives snipped
    • salt and pepper

    Instructions

    • Whisk the sour cream, milk, and mustard in a small bowl and set aside.
    • In a small saucepan or deep skillet, heat enough water to cover eggs to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Crack the eggs, one at at time in a small bowl and drop each one into the pot carefully so to not splash. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the whites are set and the yolks are almost set. Remove the eggs gently with a slotted spoon.
    • Meanwhile, toast the muffin. Top with the ham and tomato slices and place in the toaster oven for another minute (or under the broiler).
    • Arrange the eggs over the sliced tomato and spoon a bit of the sour cream ‘hollandaise’ sauce over each.
    • Get fancy and win points for presentation by garnishing with chives and seasoning with salt and pepper.

    You can't tell this isn't real "hollandaise" sauce covering these eggs. So good!
