Giada De Laurentiis prepared this the other day on her show. I thought it looked delicious and decided to try it. It turned out great. It will definitely be on the menu for some friends one night. Living in the land of Italians, I tend to shy away from serving them Italian food, but this entrée will pass the test.

Breakfast is probably my favorite meal. While growing up we lived next door to my grandparents. I couldn’t wait until Saturday and Sunday mornings when my Grandmother would cook up a huge breakfast. She always had all of the fixins’. Biscuits, gravy, country ham, sausage, bacon, eggs, hash browns, baked apples, etc.

When I lived in Charleston this was one of my favorite local foods. It’s good at breakfast or dinner. I served them to a friend a while back and she loved them. This is a very easy dish to prepare.
