Eggs Benedict on Toast is a classic breakfast dish rooted in American cuisine, believed to have originated in New York City in the late 1800s. The dish traditionally features poached eggs perched atop toasted bread or an English muffin, layered with savory Canadian bacon or ham, and drizzled with a rich hollandaise sauce—a buttery, lemon-infused emulsion. While celebrated for its indulgent flavor profile, Eggs Benedict can be high in calories, saturated fat, and sodium due to the hollandaise sauce and processed meats. On the healthier side, the poached eggs provide a good source of high-quality protein and essential vitamins such as B12 and D. Opting for whole-grain toast and leaner proteins, or modifying the sauce to reduce butter, can enhance its nutritional value. Eggs Benedict remains a beloved option for special breakfasts and brunches, offering a satisfying balance of texture and taste.
