There's no breakfast dish fancier and more popular than eggs benedict. Let's take it up a notch by serving it with lobster! If you aren't a lobster fan, smoked salmon is another delicious alternative. I actually opted to make one of each because I just couldn't decide. The hollandaise sauce is super simple - only containing 4 ingredients.
For this recipe, I used gluten-free English muffins but regular work too depending on your dietary preferences. I served this with a side of hash browns and caramelized onions, but a small side salad, sliced tomatoes, or fruit work too.
