Simple and Easy Eggs Benedict
So simple to make in one pan. No fussing with poaching eggs, or toasting muffins (which those on keto can't have anyway), or making tricky hollandaise sauce! Everything goes together in one pan and is served with a tasty mock hollandaise sauce.
Eggs Benedict for a Crowd
This Eggs Benedict Frittata serves from 10 to 12 people, so it is great for a crowd or leftovers. The perfect brunch, Easter, or Mother's Day recipe!
This eggs benedict recipe is built for leftovers, brunches, and parties because it's so easy to make? It's easy to pack and reheat, so it also makes a great make-ahead lunch! -Kori
Mock Hollandaise Sauce Is Amazing!
This mock hollandaise recipe requires no cooking or separating eggs. Hollandaise sauce can be fussy to make it a little too time-consuming for normal breakfasts. This mock hollandaise is made of mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, lemon juice, and paprika.
Mixed then heated in the microwave, you are good to go in a couple of minutes. You can easily make this sauce ahead of time. It keeps for leftovers and is a great sauce for fish or vegetables. Yum!
The original recipe came from Better Homes and Garden Cookbook years ago. I adapted it by changing up the herbs and spices. Sometimes I use dijon mustard and smoked paprika. Other times, I stick with the recipe. Either way, it's a hit!

How much is 2 cups of ham? When I go to the deli and order it, I can't tell them 2 cups of ham. What's the ounces or grams for 2 cups of ham?
Kori says
Hi there! It's 16 ounces of ham.
