Where to Buy

Have some leftover chicken? Shred it and add it to each muffin instead.
Give your chicken a healthy flair by either grilling it or baking it.
Don’t have chicken tenders? Cut a crispy chicken breast in half.
Add a tsp of salt and 2 tsp white vinegar to your pot of water before poaching your egg.
The fresher the egg, the better and neater the egg will poach.
Be patient with your egg and definitely don’t poke it while it’s poaching.
