EGGS BENEDICT

Per my sister request, I made this before I started my blog. My plan is to post recipe as I cook because I usually never measure ingredients. I do now :) I adapted this recipe from a taste of home magazine, the original recipe called for a different sauce but I like my eggs benedict with hollandaise sauce, thank goodness they have a hollandaise recipe, I adapted that too.
