Breakfast Nom Nom
NeedTaste |I saw a diner cook on TV do something similar to this & thought it sounded great -- a mash of yummy breakfast stuff. Made this last week, & it is absolutely delish I used leftover spicy smoked sausage from one night's dinner. If you use a mild sausage, you may want to add a splash of hot sauce, if you like a kick. Even for the tomato haters (like my daughter), the tomato really adds a lot to this, so I would go ahead & use it. I don't think they'll know it's in there. ) Use more cheese, if you're a cheese nut like me. I sprinkled some more on top after everything was mixed up.. This may look like a big mixed up mess but it is delicious All the fresh veggies give this dish a great flavor and then the melted ooey, gooey cheese in the mix of all this yumminess is just fabulous. This is fairly easy to throw together and all though it is great for breakfast this is hearty enough to have any time of day. If you like to do breakfast for dinner, this is the dish to make.
