I’m a big believer that sometimes the best and tastiest recipes are the simplest. This recipe is solid proof on that being true.

We were looking for a simple and delicious appetizer to make for our first Valentine’s dinner as a married couple. In the past we have always gone out, but this year is different.

Just the thought of that delicious breakfasty food makes my mouth water, and gets me daydreaming about my next morning off.

It’s such a simple meal, but it’s so buttery and eggy and creamy and wonderful!

Not to mention versatile. I whipped up this Tomato & Eggs Florentine with Homemade Hollandaise Sauce on a whim a few weeks ago. We were sadly out of any sort of ham or bacon for me to use to make the original, but I had some big juicy tomatoes and fresh baby spinach that were willing to do their part to make our breakfast satisfying.
