"This is a wonderful dish! It comes from Heidi Swanson of www.101cookbooks.com, with a few adaptations. It makes for a hearty, yet light breakfast. It has a nice sweetness to it, but the sweetness is not overwhelming. If you're looking for something different for breakfast, this is a great recipe to try."
