Easy Eggs Florentine with Super Simple Hollandaise
This recipe is two in one, a two-fer. A double. A delicious double at that. If you have never made hollandaise before this will become your go to recipe. Super easy, super quick, and just a food processor in play. Nothing fancy schmancy!
The potato has never been so sublime. Starch in all it’s glory. Go for it, don’t look back, move on from paleo, embrace the carbs. That’s all I can say, and all before breakfast! Seriously. Do yourself a breakfast flavour.
