A phrase to criticise someone who has betrayed you. Derived from 'eggs benedict', a way of preparing eggs, and 'Benedict Arnold', an American general who defected to the British during the Revolutionary War.
She just made eggs benedict arnold.

Traditional eggs benedict with the substitution of real bacon in place of the Canadian ham. Arnold is the pig from Green Acres.
Since I have an aversion to Canadian ham, I'll have the Eggs Benedict Arnold.
