Healthy Eggs Benedict
- 2 large eggs cage free
- 2 pieces whole wheat bread toasted and trimmed of crusts
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 cup low fat milk
- 1 teaspoon spicy brown mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 cup spinach chopped
- 2 tablespoons swiss cheese low-fat shredded
- 1 green onion large, thinly sliced
- Poach eggs until yolk is slightly cooked, but still runny. I poach my eggs in a medium skillet in 2" of water with 1 tsp vinegar. The vinegar helps keep the yolks together.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat melt butter and add flour, whisking to blend. Add 1/4 milk and whisk to blend., then add the remaining milk, mustard and salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 3 - 5 minutes until bubbling and thickened. Add cheese and spinach. Cook another 3 - 5 minutes to make a nice thick sauce.
- Top toast with egg and sauce. Sprinkle with onions.
