Who would have thought something so simple could be so good! Served with a fried egg and a little ketchup-delish! Thank you!

Martha Stewart had one with nutmeg and cream after cooking, then serve in wedges. I have made this will allspice also and plain as this is. It is very good.I serve with scrambled eggs.
