Notes
Tip: Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference or what's in season. This dish is versatile and can easily cater to your taste!
For a heartier version, consider adding cooked sausage or crispy bacon. You can also swap out the vegetables for seasonal picks like zucchini or asparagus depending on availability.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water to keep the eggs from drying out. Serve with crusty bread for a satisfying brunch option!
