The kids and I made these last night and then heated them up in the microwave for breakfast this morning. I followed the recipe as written other then I used OM cooked bacon. I did add the pepper and salt but did not add any of the other optional ingredients. The kids liked them but said next time they would like to have the eggs scrambled as this was more like a hard boiled egg to them.
