If you have been following me for a while then you would know that I absolutely love breakfast and brunch! Breakfast is definitely a meal where it’s easy to load up on the carbs and sugars so often times I try to find more “leaner” alternates to enjoy. One of my absolute favorite breakfast dishes is Eggs Benedict. I decided to make a high protein alternate to Eggs Florine utilizing one of my favorite items from Meats2U, their chicken breakfast patties!
Just look a that yolk drip…
Ingredients:
1 pack Meats2u Breakfast Sausage patties – defrosted
1 Small bag baby spinach
4 Eggs
Pinch of paprika to garnish
2 tsp. White wine vinegar
Spray olive oil
Pink Himalayan Salt (or regular)
Pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
Directions:
1. In a medium sauce pan fill 3/4 way full with water. add vinegar. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
2. While you are waiting for the water to boil, in a well oiled cast iron skillet (preferable but you can use a regular skillet) cook your defrosted Meats2u Breakfast Patties. Cook on each side 3-6 min.
3. Carefully, using the handle of a wooden or silicone cooking utensil, swirl the water in a clockwise motion into a small whirl pool is created. Gently break egg into the water. Lower the heat to medium low and simmer until the eggs are just set, about 3 minutes. The yolks should still be runny. Remove the egg from the water with a slotted spoon and set aside on a warm paper-towel-lined plate. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet sauté your spinach and lemon over low heat. We all know that we start off with a huge pile of spinach in end up with nothing so make sure you sauté the whole bag. Season with salt & pepper.
5. Time to assemble: Place or sausage patties on a plate them top with a generous helping of spinach, and finally add your poached egg. Garnish with paprika. Enjoy!
