It’s just so, so good!
We have said it before, and we will repeat it again: we love brunch and breakfast, but hate having to get everyone together for the morning, just so we can stand over the stove while everyone else eats. We want to share the meal with our families! It’s important to have easy and delicious recipes that are both quick to prepare, such as this jalapeno popper breakfast recipe.
