Great way start the kids off with a good dose of protien, carbs & calcium. I make a quick version that’s more “breakfast-y” …. Chop up some fresh spinach, toss into eggs and scramble. Top with shredded cheddar and roll into a tortilla. Three minutes and they’re out the door with a healthy breakfast!
This is a nice recipe to break the fast!
