Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet Hollandaise sauce
  • 4 cups leftover stuffing
  • 1-2 eggs lightly beaten eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 4 eggs eggs
  • 4 slices leftover roasted turkey

Equipment

  • Waffle Maker

Method
 

  1. Start by making the Hollandaise sauce according to the package directions. Keep it warm on the stove while you prepare the rest of the meal. This sauce will be drizzled on top, adding that rich, creamy touch to your dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the leftover stuffing, lightly beaten eggs, and milk. If the mixture feels dry, you can add another egg to ensure it binds well. This mixture will be transformed into waffles, providing a unique base for your Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict.
  3. Next, heat your waffle maker and pour in enough of the stuffing mixture to make 4 waffles. Cook them until they are golden brown and crispy. Once done, keep them warm on a plate while you prepare the poached eggs. The stuffing waffles will add texture and flavor that complements the other ingredients.
  4. Fill a deep-sided pan with a few inches of water and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Poaching the eggs requires care, so you want to keep the water at a steady temperature.
  5. Break each egg into a small bowl before gently slipping it into the simmering water. They will need to cook for about 3 to 5 minutes. Look for the whites to be fully set while keeping the yolks soft and runny. Use a slotted spoon to remove them once cooked, placing them on paper towels to drain excess water.
  6. If you need to reheat the poached eggs, simply return them to the simmering water for a couple of minutes. This will warm them through without overcooking.
  7. Now it’s time to assemble your Thanksgiving Eggs Benedict. Start with a warm stuffing waffle as the base. Layer on a slice of roasted turkey, followed by a perfectly poached egg. Finally, drizzle generously with the warm Hollandaise sauce. This combination is where the magic happens!
  8. Serve immediately while everything is warm, and watch your family's faces light up with joy as they dig into this scrumptious dish. Each bite is a celebration of flavors and a perfect tribute to Thanksgiving.
