10.\u00a0Better-for-You Eggs Benedict<\/a><\/h3>\n

We love the buttery hollandaise sauce in eggs benedict, but the dish is upwards of 700 calories. Our healthier version uses chicken broth instead of butter to enhance the flavor of the sauce. To poach the egg<\/a>, add some vinegar to water in a saucepan and let it boil. Then, drop a cracked egg into the water until the whites are opaque. Add a dash of paprika for a spicy finishing touch.
