I wanted to make a special breakfast for my husband before the holiday crazy started. This is wonderful- a nice change from bacon and sausage omelets. I did not stir in the tomatoes with the egg mixture. I added it to the eggs when adding the rest of the fillling. Hollandaise sauce on top is a must. Thanks keen5 for a real keeper.

I love to cook, but don't have a lot of time to do it, since I work full time. I like to try a new recipe every Saturday, if time allows.
