Salmon Eggs Benedict

Eggs benedict is the quintessential Sunday brunch meal. I never ordered it because I am not a fan of the Canadian bacon. But in a little beach cafe in Sydney, Australia, they serve eggs benedict with smoked salmon instead, where the inspiration for this dish came. 

Now the first time I decided to tackle eggs benedict I was staying over at my parent’s house with Ryan. My mom and I got out all of her recipe books with hollandaise sauce in them and spread them all over the table.  We tried to comparing the minute details for 15 different recipes (I think we chose one by eenie, meenie, miney, mo). The next morning there were 4 of us crowded around the stove using 3 burners all working on a different component of the meal. Let’s just call it organized chaos.

Salmon with Sweet Corn Salsa

Of the many things I have discovered about living in my apartment, one of my favorite’s, is my proximity to Whole Foods…(it may be my bank account’s least favorite). I can literally run there, grab the cinnamon I was missing for zucchini bread or brioche buns for sloppy joes, check out, and run back in less than thirty minutes. I save the environment some emissions and my butt gets a much needed break from the couch and Bravo marathons...that I have to record while I am gone because I am already too sucked in.

Lucky for my bank account, Whole Foods has some amazing Friday sales. This week...Wild Fresh Alaskan Coho Salmon. YUM! I got my inspiration from a recipe they posted on their website. It was the perfect combinations of flavors for this melt in your mouth fish.
