I love this recipe! It's easy and makes a great breakfast, or dinner, and is great make-ahead meal. If you have any other leafy greens or broccoli you want to use, you can add them too!In addition to leafy greens and broccoli, zucchini and tomatoes are great additions to this dish, though you might have to cook it longer with veggies like these that have a higher water content. My favorite cheese to use are guyere or crumbled goat cheese, though any cheese can work.
