Eggs are a great protein source and easy to keep on hand. This recipe really punches up the vegetables and is a great breakfast or brunch dish. You can prepare the vegetable mixture ahead of time and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. This is super quick and looks beautiful on the plate.
