I lightened this Tex-Mex Eggs Benedict by using lightened up multi grain english muffins. I also used 100 calorie packs of avocado and reduced fat breakfast sausage. Other than that, there isn’t much else to be changed here. I like to cook the sausage and eggs up ahead of time and then have it all on hand to reheat every morning for breakfast, but it also makes a really good option for dinner too!
