Holy Cow! We received the three mustards in the picture, plus three others. Maybe this wouldn't be so hard, after all....
Since my last recipe was a rather caloric, albeit tasty, breakfast entree, I thought I would start with a healthier breakfast idea.
Eggs Florentine on Golden Polenta with “Skinny” Mustard
Sauce
- 1/2 cup low-fat
- plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup
- reduced-fat mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons
- Saucy Mama Tarragon Lemon Mustard or Champagne Honey Mustard
- 1 tablespoon
- lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon water
- 12 oz prepared
- polenta, cut into 8 1/2" rounds
- 3 teaspoons olive
- oil, divided
- 1 (6 oz) bag baby
- spinach leaves
- 8 eggs,
poached
First, mix the yogurt, mayo, mustard, lemon juice and water together; set aside.
Heat two teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet. Add the polenta slices and fry them over medium/low heat for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy. Remove from skillet and cover to keep warm.
Add an additional teaspoon of oil to the skillet and add the fresh spinach. Saute for 3 or 4 minutes, or until wilted and heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the spinach from the skillet. Spoon the mustard sauce into the warm pan and cook for about a minute until heated through.
Arrange two polenta slices on a plate. Top each slice with 1/8 of the spinach and a poached egg. Drizzle the sauce over the egg; repeat for each polenta slice. Sprinkle with freshly ground pepper. This recipe will serve 4, two eggs each.
I love a nice runny yolk, but if it's not your bag, simply cook your egg longer.

How easy was that? And thanks to the Saucy Mama mustard, the sauce is tasty, gluten free, and low in calories. In fact, you can eat two of the eggs with sauce for about 325 calories! Not too shabby.
