Black Bean Salsa

1 can black beans (drained)
½ cup chopped cilantro
1 medium tomato chopped
2 green onions, chopped
½ red bell pepper, chopped
½ yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 can chopped green chilies
Salt, pepper, lime juice, and Tabasco sauce to taste

Combine all ingredients and mix well. This can be made ahead, but leave out the tomato until ready to heat. Warm salsa in the microwave.

Prepare hollandaise sauce using your favorite packaged mix.

Allow 1 poached egg per person. Use your favorite method for preparing poached eggs.

Assembly

Cut the cornbread into squares. If it is thick, cut it again horizontally. Place a thin, warm slice of ham on top of the cornbread. Spoon the warm salsa over the ham, making a dent for the poached egg. Put the poached on top and cover with hollandaise sauce. Decorate with paprika and chopped parsley.
