This was Boy’s special birthday request. We had a super busy morning on his actual birthday, so I made it for him for today, instead. This is his all-time favorite breakfast and he would have it every day if they made childrens’ chewable Lipitor.<\/p>\n

This is super-easy to make:<\/p>\n

Poach the eggs. I have a handy-dandy poaching pan from Wal-Mart that holds simmering water in the bottom and has little non-stick cups for 4 eggs, with a glass lid, so you can see when they’re getting done, but you can also do it in simmering water (add a little vinegar, I’m told, to help the whites hold together better).<\/p>\n

While the eggs cook, prepare the Hollandaise sauce<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Toast the English muffins (lightly – I used whole wheat ones, because I’m THE MEANEST MOM EVER).<\/p>\n

Slightly warm (microwave 15 seconds) the Canadian Bacon slices.<\/p>\n

Put it all together:
\nOne muffin half, topped with a ham slice, topped with an egg, topped with some sauce and then sprinkled with paprika.<\/p>\n

Hubby sliced the kiwi for me and then got all cute and called it “Kiwi Constantine.”<\/p>\n

Would you like some Juice Justinian with that?<\/p>\n

Update 1-31-12:<\/p>\n

I now poach my eggs directly in simmering water (add a little vinegar) and use this hollandaise recipe<\/a> for Eggs Benedict, instead.\u00a0 MUCH better.\u00a0 Here’s an updated photo:<\/p>\n
