I often prepare breakfast as dinner and this contained all of my favorites. I prepared in a buttered omelet pan;it had a lovely browned exterior with creamy interior. I did not stir once I added items to the pan but once it browned turned it over on itself for a finish like Bergys pic. I added 1/2 cup shredded mild cheddar which added to the creaminess. This could also be accented with a good hollandaise sauce. This would also be delicous topped with a fresh salsa. Ole!
