For my birthday in November my husband bought me two of the Top Chef cookbooks. So, over winter break (back in December, I'm a little behind the times right now) I tried one of the recipes that we had seen on the show that looked soooo tasty. The Fried Egg Reuben Benedict with Thousand Island Hollandaise. I was nervous to try this recipe because of the hollandaise sauce, which I'd heard was really hard to make. Its not. It is a bit of a pain because you have to whisk until you feel like your arm is going to fall off, then continue whisking for about 10 more minutes, but its not too hard. It was worth the work for me because I was so proud of myself for having made it from scratch. If you don't want to do that much work, you could just buy a hollandaise mix, make it according to the directions, then add the ketchup and sweet relish. This recipe was delicious, especially for my husband and I who prefer savory breakfasts.
