Thanks for this post. Eggs Benedict is my favorite brunch food too but I never attempted to make it at home because I don't like to poach eggs--all that chasing the white around the water in the pan and trying to keep it together is too much for me. But I am totally going to try making them in the oven!

Girl, I've never made a poached egg in my life because I thought I'd screw it up. LOVE this tip about putting them in the oven! On a completely unrelated note to food, your photos are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
