An American invention, a delicious Eggs Benedict includes an English Muffin, topped with bacon or ham, poached eggs, and Hollandaise sauce.

How to Celebrate?

  • Start your day by making Eggs Benedict for yourself and your family.
  • No time to do it before work? What about making it for dinner instead?
  • Try different variations of the dish. For instance, replace the bacon with tomatoes, spinach, or salmon. Hollandaise too hard to make early in the morning? Substitute it with melted cheese.

Did You Know…

…that spinning an egg can tell you whether it is raw or hard-boiled? A hard-boiled egg will easily spin, while a raw egg will wobble.
