One of the most important traditions in many homes is gathering ‘round the tree on Christmas morning. But after all the excitement of opening gifts simmers down, it’s nice to sit down to a healthy and delicious breakfast.
Here is a dish my family eats year ‘round. But it’s perfect for Christmas morning because it’s easy, and that’s especially important because Mom and Dad need to open their gifts, too! You can also prepare it in advance and let it cook while everyone is waking up. In keeping with the Christmas theme, I added some colorful vegetables in red and green to keep the spirit going through mealtime.
All my kids love this egg dish, and I hope it becomes a tradition in your home, too.
