4 (3½ - to 4-inch) portobello
mushroom caps, stems and
gills removed
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 ¼ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper
2 Tbsp. plain fat-free Greek yogurt
4 tsp. light mayonnaise
2 tsp. snipped fresh thyme
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. lemon juice
¼ tsp. bottled hot pepper sauce,
or more to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups fresh baby
spinach, chopped
½ tsp. salt-free Cajun seasoning
or paprika, plus more for garnish
1 tsp. white vinegar
4 eggs


  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a 10x15-inch
    baking pan with foil. Brush mushrooms
    with 1 Tbsp. oil, then sprinkle inside of
    mushrooms with ¼ tsp. salt and the
    pepper. Put on prepared pan, stem sides
    down. Bake until tender, about 12 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, for sauce, whisk together
    yogurt, mayonnaise, thyme, mustard,
    lemon juice, and hot sauce in a small
    bowl until smooth.

  3. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a large
    skillet over medium heat. Add garlic;
    cook 1 minute. Add spinach and Cajun
    seasoning; cook, stirring, until spinach is
    just wilted, about 1 minute.

  4. Fill a large saucepan with 2 to 3 inches
    of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat
    to medium-low, add vinegar, and keep
    water at a gentle simmer. Stir in salt until
    dissolved. Crack 1 egg into a small bowl,
    then gently slip egg into simmering
    water, holding bowl just above the
    surface. Repeat with remaining eggs.
    Poach until whites are firm and yolks are
    thickened but not hard, 3 to 5 minutes.
    Remove eggs with a slotted spoon.

  5. Just before serving, microwave
    sauce until heated through, 30 to
    45 seconds. Top mushrooms with
    spinach mixture, eggs, and sauce.
    Sprinkle with Cajun seasoning.

HANDS-ON 10 MIN TOTAL 20 MIN
SERVES 2 SUBMITTED BY ALMONDJOY2807

     15 REVIEWS
6 fresh asparagus spears,
ends trimmed
2 tsp. olive oil
1 tsp. white vinegar
½ tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 large croissant, split
2 slices Canadian bacon
¼ cup grated Asiago cheese
¼ cup prepared hollandaise sauce
[We used a 0.9-oz. package
of Knorr Hollandaise Classic
Sauce Mix.]
Fresh snipped chives, for garnish
Cracked black pepper


  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking
    sheet with foil and coat with cooking
    spray. Arrange asparagus in a single layer,
    drizzle with oil, and toss to coat. Bake
    until tender, stirring once, 10 to 15 minutes.

  2. Fill a large saucepan with 2 to 3 inches
    of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat
    to medium-low, add vinegar, and keep
    water at a gentle simmer. Stir in salt until
    dissolved. Crack 1 egg into a small bowl,
    then gently slip egg into simmering
    water, holding bowl just above the
    surface. Repeat with remaining egg.
    Poach until whites are firm and yolks are
    thickened but not hard, 3 to 5 minutes.
    Remove eggs with a slotted spoon.

  3. Arrange croissant halves on another
    baking sheet. Top each with 1 slice
    Canadian bacon, 3 asparagus spears,
    and 1 egg. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake
    until cheese is melted and croissants are
    warmed through, about 5 minutes.

  4. Microwave hollandaise sauce in a
    small bowl until heated through. Spoon
    sauce over croissants. Sprinkle with
    chives and pepper.

The Benedict on the right
has half as much fat and
510 milligrams less sodium.
Here’s how we did it.
Swapping the croissant for
a portobello mushroom adds
satisfying umami flavor while
cutting more than 100 calories.


Making your own hollandaise
sauce with Greek yogurt
and light mayo
reduces fat and sodium.
