I try to eat a lower carb diet and this is perfect. Also re-heated well so I could eat it for lunch during the week. I added 1/2 cup of salsa on the top the last few minutes of baking.

I have used this recipe for years and always get asked for the recipe whenever I take it to a potluck. I leave out the chiles, olives and tomatoes, adding in some type of breakfast meat most of the time. Doubled it fits nicely in a 13x9 pan and can be put together the night before. Awesome Christmas morning dish.
