Tested it just now, fun to modify with what I had on hand. Will be perfect for a non-dairy option for an all-morning brunch for a getting-ready-for-wedding morning that would be easy on me.

This is so easy and great for a mid week dinner or a treat weekend breakfast. I some time add chorizo for an extra smokey hit!
