I. Love. Eggs. Benedict. But, I honestly never think to make it at home. This Eggs Benedict Casserole is the best of both worlds, without all of the complicated assembling and egg poaching.

I still remember the first time I had Eggs Benedict. It was springtime, around Easter, and I was probably around 10. I was walking around a glorious brunch buffet with everything from danishes to prime rib to made-to-order omelets. I passed by this curious station with buttered English muffins (hello, lover), poached eggs, ham slices, and a thick, yellow, creamy sauce.

I’ve always been an overly adventurous eater, so I stuck out my plate and the chef assembled a neat little stack of muffin, ham, egg, and sauce. I went to my seat and cut in. Gooey egg yolk and hollandaise ran all over the plate, which I sopped up with the English muffin and ham. DELICIOUS! I was hooked.

However, I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve tried to make Eggs Benedict at home. Can I tell you why…I sort of hate poaching eggs. And I feel like making it for more than one person turns into a big hassle. But, I just can’t get those flavors out of my head!

THAT’S WHEN I TURN TO MY FAVORITE HACK – EGGS BENEDICT CASSEROLE!

These days, with a baby coming, a garage addition underway, numerous house projects, and a cookbook to write, I’m all about making life simpler.

Every Monday, I place an online, Instacart order from ALDI USA I log on and order my favorite things/staples – organic whole milk, organic yogurt, organic produce (the hubs loves blackberries), organic cheese puffs (SO GOOD), organic eggs, coffee, and organic, free-range chicken. They literally have everything I need!

I also go through my weekly schedule and plan out any meals we’re having at home. On holidays and special weeks, I always add a few extra things to make brunch at home. It’s something special we like to do in our home whenever we can. With all of the extra time spent at home lately (a blessing in disguise if you ask me) we have been brunching it up every week, haha! ALDI USA always has everything I need, and when I shop there, I save so much money without giving up on quality, organic ingredients.

THIS RECIPE IS PERFECT FOR USING UP LEFTOVER HAM

This time of year, I always see big hams at the store. I’m always wanting to buy them for easy dinners for family, ham and bean soup, and ham stock. But, I ALWAYS have leftovers. So, I couldn’t stop thinking about my favorite breakfast that uses ham – Eggs Benedict.

You’ll see that the recipe below uses 2 cups of diced ham – I call for exactly the type I used. But, you can use leftover ham, lunchmeat, ham steak– and you’ll find all of that at ALDI USA.

HOW DO YOU MAKE EGGS BENEDICT CASSEROLE

This all brings me to the important part – making the Eggs Benedict Casserole. All you need to do is fold diced ham and English muffins into whisked eggs. I add chopped spinach because I like something green in there. You know, health.

The hollandaise sauce comes together in 2 minutes in the blender. When the casserole is all finished baking, you just drizzle the sauce on top and voila! Brunch in a flash (and you didn’t have to poach an egg!).
