I prepared this recipe exactly as it's written (including leaving in a few seeds for spiciness). I loved the results. These eggs pack a lot of flavour for only 3 points a serving. They are also Core if you are following Weight Watchers Core Plan. Made for ZWT5.

I opted to use salsa that I had in the fridge. The eggs and whites were mixed with the spices and poured over the shallots and pepper. A touch of cheese would be wonderful.
