Hey Cynthia,
I love your website because it is where I am learning how to cook different types of menus. You are helping many of us who did not know all of these. You are talking about one egg only – can I add one extra egg and keep the same quantity of ingredients? – and, have the same taste?
Yes! Feel free to add another egg!
I’m always looking for new breakfast ideas that are diet-friendly and low-carb. A lot of the time I make scrambled eggs, but I’d never thought about using salsa as part of the recipe. This recipe looks super easy, tasty and quick to make. So I’m going to bookmark it and definitely give it a try soon! Thanks for sharing.
It’s really a unique and super-easy way to make a healthy breakfast. I hope you enjoy it!
