whoa.
it was mighty fine.
like the kind of mighty fine
that forces you to have two servings.
even if you're already full.
i changed the recipe VERY slightly.
just added an onion for a little extra flave.
still awesome without the eggs if you're not a fan.
also read about a genius making these in muffin tins
so you get more crispy edges to nom.
if my muffin tin wasn't so dinky i would have tried that...
BRILLIANT.
