"I'm incapable of making a proper omelet, but that doesn't stop me from putting interesting ingredients in my eggs. This throw-together meal is further proof that leftovers and/or a well-stocked pantry can save any "I don't wanna cook" night, especially for someone following a low-carb diet plan."

In my family, I am most famous (infamous) for several dishes: My first original recipe: Conceived around age 7, for a cheese sandwich. Toasted English muffin, spread with butter, slice of American cheese, a good layer of Parmesan, top with other half of buttered muffin. My most disasterous recipe: The Exploding Brownies. Otherwise great hershey's recipe for brownies involving an ingredient (baking powder) that I'd never used before. I somehow misread 1/4 teaspoon as a 1/4 cup. Brownie coated the ENTIRE oven. My most requested recipe: Stollen at Christmas. I am required to make one for my mother ever since my sister gave me Christian Teubner's wonderful Christmas Baking book full of traditional German Christmas treats.
