Tips
There is no need to always have sweet breakfasts. This is a real quick savory option. We can vary ingredients as we please. Try making it with spinach, pepper, or leeks.
If you use bread as a side dish, make sure is wholemeal bread.
Did you know there is not a maximum amount of egg consumption? If you like them you can have them daily.
