Eggs Benedict

Toast an English muffin, top it with Canadian Bacon you've heated and a poached egg!. The top that with Hollandaise sauce!.

To make the sauce:
4 egg yolks
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick)
Pinch cayenne
Pinch salt

Vigorously whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a stainless steel bowl and until the mixture is thickened and doubled in volume!. Place the bowl over a saucepan containing barely simmering water (or use a double boiler,) the water should not touch the bottom of the bowl!. Continue to whisk rapidly!. Be careful not to let the eggs get too hot or they will scramble!. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and continue to whisk until the sauce is thickened and doubled in volume!. Remove from heat, whisk in cayenne and salt!. Cover and place in a warm spot until ready to use for the eggs benedict!. If the sauce gets too thick, whisk in a few drops of warm water before serving!.

Hollandaise sauce is great on asparagus or with artichokes, too!

What is this, a homework assignment for home ec class!? Your requirements are far too vague -- vegetarian!? kosher/halal!? available ingredients!? time constraints!? Do you want fourteen different permutations of ostrich burgers!? How many times can you factor eat-out/take-out into the equation!? Do you want fries with that!? A two-week meal plan is a huge amount of work even for a professional chef, and you can't honestly expect people on Yahoo Answers to give you anything more than a phoned-in answer, if that!.

I'll give you a quick way to do it though -- the Deal-a-Meal approach!. Get a couple of dozen interesting ideas for each course and write them down on index cards -- main courses, side dishes, breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc -- and then shuffle and deal like Richard Simmons used to; when you're done, just tweak anything that doesn't obviously fit together and then write the whole thing up!. There's plenty of good sources out there -- the random recipe display on bbc!.co!.uk/food is a good place to start, as well as foodnetwork!.com, epicurious!.com and quite a few cookbooks you can just flip through and pick a page at random -- so there's no shortage of ideas!.

If you're doing this in the real world, you also have much to work out in terms of supplies and time available!. Don't forget, a lot of meals are simple, spur-of-the-moment affairs based on whatever looked good at the supermarket that day or whatever happened to be lying around in the cabinet or the freezer!. Half a dozen recipes from southeast Asia won't do you a damn bit of good if you can't find tamarind or fish sauce somewhere!.

(One suggestion for your menu though: Chicken Cameline!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com
