Fast and Easy Hollandaise Sauce
If you’ve already read my post aboutcholine and how important it is for the nervous system — especially during pregnancy — you’re probably ready to start eating more eggs for breakfast. And for good reason! Eggs are not only one of the best sources of choline, but they also keep you feeling full for longer, which means less snacking throughout the day.
But after a while, even eggs can start to feel a little boring… and that’s where hollandaise sauce comes in. It tastes incredible with poached eggs, but it’s also delicious with:
- asparagus
- broccoli
- green vegetables
- salmon and other fish
- grilled chicken
- roasted potatoes
- steamed vegetables
- steak
- savoury crepes
- avocado toast
- cauliflower.
This recipe turns out perfectly every time and is ideal even for busy mornings. Just take it out of the fridge and warm up. Unlike many traditional hollandaise recipes, it doesn’t split and has a beautifully creamy texture. Just remember to warm it gently and don’t overcook it.
Ok, lets make it!
