Ingredients
Scale
- 2 English muffins, split and toasted
- 4 slices of smoked salmon
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 4 poached eggs
- Hollandaise sauce, for topping
- Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Toast the English muffins until golden brown.

- Layer with sliced avocado and a poached egg on top.
- Drizzle hollandaise sauce generously over the eggs.
- Garnish with fresh chives, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Poaching Eggs: For perfect poached eggs, add a splash of vinegar to the boiling water to help the egg whites set more quickly.
- Hollandaise Sauce: If you’re short on time, pre-made hollandaise sauce works well, but homemade adds a richer flavor.
- Avocado Selection: Choose a ripe avocado for creaminess; it should be slightly soft to the touch but not mushy.
- Customizations: Add a dash of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the hollandaise for an extra kick!
