Notes
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the eggs with the salt and pepper. Adjust the amount of cheese to your liking, and feel free to use different types of cheese like Monterey Jack or a Mexican blend. If you like a little heat, a dash of hot sauce in the eggs or as a topping works great!
