  1. Absolutely delicious, I sliced off 2 thick slices of smoky ham straight of the leg and with the poached eggs and hollandaise sauce and the toasted English muffin and that sprinkle of paprika made for a delicious breakfast which I shared with my DM and we both thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you foodchef2 and lazyme for the recommendation, made for I Recommend tag game.
     
  2. Loved this! Very simple, easy, and tasty. I used Canadian bacon and a mix for the hollandaise. Thanks foodchef2 for a nice breakfast treat. Made for Cookbook Tag.
     
  3. Was simple to make. Very tasty. I didn't poach the eggs, the kids don't care for them that well. I used pancetta and it was excellent. Thanks for posting. I made this for My 3 Chefs Nov 2008
