Serve this for supper with a salad (or some crusty bread if you’re feeling the need for more carbs…no judging here). Delicious, also, for brunch as an alternative to the usual home fries.
Possible add-ins? Spinach, shredded cooked chicken, asparagus, cooked ground chorizo or chopped bacon, mushrooms. Be your creative self.
