The photo of my eggs didn't turn out so hot this time. Plus the avocados, like everything else here, aren't in season so they don't look too swift either. I always add guacamole or avocado to anything Mexican I make, I just have  to.  


This is what the recipe was suppose to look like in the photo above. 

This is the Tuesday Dinner across the miles I do with Lou, today I picked a breakfast one instead. It's very quick and easy, takes 5 minutes to prepare.  It's really yummy, so even though my photo didn't turn out so hot, it really tastes delicious! You can of course use real eggs instead of egg substitute, I did. SShhhhh
