    To lighten these, I skip the Hollandaise sauce which shaves off hundreds of calories, since the egg yolks are perfectly silky on their own! This is delicious, you wont miss it!,Swiss Chard is a healthy leafy green vegetable in season in the Spring. Its a great addition to this breakfast but you can also add chard to pasta, soups, salads, and more!,Alt=Alt=Alt=,Crack eggs into individual small cups or ramekins.,Bring a deep skillet filled with 2 to 3 inches of water to a boil. Add vinegar and salt. Reduce to simmer.,Use a spoon to stir the water so it is spinning around in a circle. This will keep the egg whites from spreading out away from the yolk.,Carefully drop eggs one at a time into the center of the pot.,Simmer for 2 minutes then turn off the heat. Cover and let sit for 2 more minutes.,Gently remove eggs with a slotted spoon and place on plate lined with paper towels.,Fettucine with Swiss Chard and Poached Egg,Crab Cakes Benedict,Asparagus and Poached Eggs over Pasta,Lentils and Asparagus with Poached Eggs
