Eggs Florentine Casserole Tips<\/h2>\r\n

What is the difference between eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine?<\/h3>As the most basic level, eggs Florentine contains spinach and eggs Benedict does not. Eggs Benedict<\/a>, an American brunch classic, is an English muffin topped with ham and poached eggs and then finished with a rich hollandaise sauce. Many people assume that eggs Florentine is a vegetarian variation of eggs Benedict, but eggs Florentine actually predates eggs Benedict. The earliest versions of eggs Florentine used Mornay, a creamy cheese sauce that's related to b\u00e9chamel (here's an overview of the classic French sauces<\/a>). However, the standard modern eggs Florentine recipe is a muffin topped with sliced tomato, saut\u00e9ed or steamed spinach, a poached egg and hollandaise sauce.\r\n

How long is leftover egg casserole good for?<\/h3>Refrigerate any leftover egg casserole within 2 hours. You can keep an egg-based casserole in the refrigerator for up to 3 or 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. (Here's how long other foods last in the fridge<\/a>.)\r\n

How do you know if an egg casserole is done?<\/h3>Egg casseroles and quiches usually cook for 30 to 40 minutes and should reach an internal temperature of at least 160\u00b0. For an easy way to test for doneness, insert a knife close to the center of the casserole. If the knife comes out clean, the casserole is done.

However, the standard modern eggs Florentine recipe is a muffin topped with sliced tomato, saut\u00e9ed or steamed spinach, a poached egg and hollandaise sauce.

How long is leftover egg casserole good for?<\/h3>Refrigerate any leftover egg casserole within 2 hours. You can keep an egg-based casserole in the refrigerator for up to 3 or 4 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. (Here's how long other foods last in the fridge<\/a>.)

How do you know if an egg casserole is done?<\/h3>Egg casseroles and quiches usually cook for 30 to 40 minutes and should reach an internal temperature of at least 160\u00b0. For an easy way to test for doneness, insert a knife close to the center of the casserole. If the knife comes out clean, the casserole is done.

Enjoyed this variation of classic \"egg bake\" recipes. I especially liked that it did not contain any bread since we have been eating \"grain free\". So many have bread cubes in.

Yum! So glad I added a can of green chilies to give this some kick. I only had a 16oz bag of spinach, so I baked mine for 15 minutes at 375, then another 35 minutes at 350 and it was perfectly done.

I made this for a ladies group at church and everyone loved it. My husband did get one of the two pieces left and said to make it again. I made it the night before due to time constraints and baked it the next morning. Took longer, about an hour to cook.<\/p>

My only addition was adding cream cheese as the cook suggested and some salt and pepper.<\/p>
