I make this ahead and serve it for Christmas morning breakfast. It has the ingredients of a classic eggs Benedict, encased in puff pastry to create a beautiful loaf. You can refrigerate the assembled braid overnight, or freeze it for up to two weeks. If you prepare it ahead of time, wrap it tightly so the pastry doesn't dry out, and brush strudel with egg wash just before baking. Add 20 minutes to baking time if strudel is frozen. -Sarah Strohl, Commerce Township, Michigan

Set aside., For braid, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk 5 eggs, salt and pepper; add to skillet. Cook and stir until barely set; stir in sauce., On a lightly greased baking sheet, roll out pastry into a 12x10-in. rectangle.
