Delicious! Beautiful colorful presentation. I made no changes! It was perfect!
Absolutely delicious and my son loved it too!!
Tried it at a break and it was hit. I made no changes
I made this for lunch. I used white cheddar for the cheese. It was a good combination of flavors. I’ll make again!
Simple and perfect for an easy breakfast or any time of day treat. I was tempted to cook my eggs on the stove but went ahead and did them in the microwave and they turned out just fine.
