I’m not one to normally fix or eat breakfast….But when I do, it tends to be amazing.  Well, I mean, how could it not?  Breakfast that has to be made usually consists of one of the devil foods – bacon, sausage, or ham.  And we all know how great those are!! (on that note, feel free to interchange the bacon or ham for the sausage in this recipe) – So come on over to the wild side with me and make this for your tribe.  They will love you just a little more.
