This is a flavor sensation and much healthier than the usual recipe! You won't miss the Hollandaise! For the bread, I like to go to the bakery and get a really hearty bread, unsliced, and cut a 3/4 to 1 inch slab of it for this.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup low fat plain or vanilla yogurt
  • 1 tbsp. light mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard (I like the kind with the whole grains in it)
  • 2 organic eggs
  • 1 piece of thick hearty artisan bread or whole grain English muffin
  • 1/2 cup of fresh baby spinach leaves, stems removed
  • A couple of grinds of cracked peppercorns
  • Dash of vinegar

Directions
  1. In a small microwavable bowl, mix and microwave the yogurt, mayonnaise and mustard on high for 30-40 seconds or until warm. Stir - set aside.
  2. In a 10-inch skillet, heat 1½ to 2" water to boiling, add dash of vinegar. Reduce heat to medium-low. Break each egg into a shallow dish or coffee cup; carefully slide eggs into hot water. Quickly and gently spoon hot water over each egg until film forms over yolk. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes or until eggs are to desired doneness.
  3. Meanwhile, drop bread of muffin in the toaster so it's ready when the eggs are done. Spread about 1-2 tbsp. of the sauce on bread/muffin. Top with the spinach leaves.
  4. With slotted spoon, remove eggs from water, dab the bottom of the spoon on a paper towel to lose some of the water, place over the spinach. Top with remaining sauce, sprinkle liberally with cracked peppercorns.

Fascinating! I'm quite interested in the yogurt, mayo, and mustard combination as a Hollandase replacement.


Poached eggs! One of my favorite things. This looks really delicious. Thank you!


Yummm... this sounds wonderful.... makes you want to have breakfast for every meal..


Looks great! I think this will be A dish for Sunday morn breakfast...Thanks


I quit using microwaves, so I'll be heating the yogurt and mayo on the stove. But I can't wait to try this (have to buy fresh spinach first). It looks so simple and yummy! Anybody interested in buying a 1.5 cu micro? :) I use my built-in for storage!


My sweetheart made this for me, (which scored him some high points...) and it was really wonderful. I'm going to add it to my arsenal of Breakfast regulars!!
