When our friends at Godshall's sent us some of their famous turkey bacon to try, we were beyond excited. We immediately fell in love with the crispy texture and authentic wood-smoked flavor. We knew that making a special Eggs Benedict dish using this bacon would be a perfect combination. This dish is easy to make, but full of flavor, and it makes an excellent main dish for breakfast or a special brunch.

Ingredients:

  • EGGS: 2 eggs + 3 EGG YOLKS
  • Godshall's Original Turkey Bacon: 3 slices
  • TOASTED ENGLISH MUFFIN, split
  • MELTED BUTTER: ½ cup
  • LEMON JUICE: fresh squeezed from 1 lemon
  • PAPRIKA: 1 teaspoon
  • SALT: 1 teaspoon
  • CAYENNE PEPPER: a pinch

Why this recipe works:

Godshall's Original Turkey Bacon adds crispy, wood-smoked texture and flavor to traditional Eggs Benedict. Unlike Canadian Bacon, this delicious turkey bacon is made with high quality cuts of meat raised with no added hormones and no MSG. It crisps up beautifully and tastes great. Did we mention it's low in fat.... and only 50 calories per serving?
