No Yolk poached eggs and Salmon Benedict with Tomato bruschetta

Print

Once again my love for salmon! Believe it or not, this dish came about and manifested itself in a dream of mine. It all came about when I was house sitting for two of my best friends. Knowingly one morning I got caught up watching a series of Netflix called ‘Chefs Table’. Long story short, I was dreaming of fishing for salmon in the sky (poached egg) rustic boat (bread) and remember wondering where the sun (the yolk) was. Funny right? Strange?

Further Food Commentary:

No weekend is ever complete without brunch, and this Salmon Benedict is sure to be a crowd-pleaser among your guests. A spin on the popular eggs benedict brunch staple, this lightened-up dish is packed with heart-healthy omega-3’s from the salmon and features a welcoming pop of color and flavor from the tomatoes. With all of that flavor packed into the dish, there’s no need to add heavy hollandaise sauce traditionally used in this dish, meaning you can enjoy it guilt-free. Give this recipe a try at your next brunch gathering- it might even become a weekly staple!
