Veggie Bennie

Not quite an eggs benedict, but just as delicious in the this can't really be healthy kind of way.  I enjoyed this breakfast on a rare end-of summer Sunday morning at home before heading out on a long bike ride.  It's a great pre-workout brunch option!

Enjoy!

What's in the fridge:

2 eggs

1/2 TBSP white vinegar

1 English muffin

4 slices of vine ripened tomato

1/2 avacado, sliced

Directions:

- Fill a deep skillet 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil

- Once boiling, add white vinegar and swirl around.  This helps the eggs whites congeal. 

- Start English muffin toasting

- Poach eggs by dropping cracked eggs in boiling water.  Slowly do so by first cracking eggs into a very small bowl or ramekin.  Then pour the egg in the water by dipping the bowl/ramekin in the water and letting the egg and water mix a bit before being fully dropped in the water.

- Once muffin is toasted, lightly butter then layer tomato then avacado on each side of the English Muffin.
- After approx. 5 minutes, remove eggs with a slotted spoon and place on top of muffin/tomato/avacado
- Lightly salt and season with herbes de province.

Bon Appetit!
