We started cooking this recipe when our first daughter Lauren was born. Nathan was doing breakfast solo, and was tired of making the same few items that were easy to do by ones-self. Our friends at the Greenlake Guest House in Seattle offered this recipe as something new to try.
Of course once Casey was back in the kitchen she decide to add her own flair to it. She made one simple change that enhanced the flavor. The cream. It had been noted as half and half originally. We suggest you try it both ways and you will see how it improves the dish!
