This week for Whisk Wednesdays we made Oeufs Mollets Florentine or Eggs Forentine. I love brunch and so served this on Sunday during the Chicago Bears football game and it was perfect and very, VERY good!!! I made some English Muffins the night before and as usual the English Muffins were delicious and perfect side with the eggs.

I love these in the little ramekins…what a great idea. While the guys liked two eggs, one was plenty for me and this is the cutest way to serve them…the English muffins look perfect with them…great job! Happy Thanksgiving.
Love the little single oeuf. So very cute!They really were tasty weren’t they?
Love your plating in the ramekins! The English Muffin recipe I must try!
Everything looks perfect! And the English muffins? Perfect. I’m coming back for the recipe.
I’m impressed that you made homemade english muffins too! Your ramekins are very nice too!
This looks great together – a perfect combination!
