For a richer flavor, use browned butter instead of regular butter. Add a pinch of cumin or chili powder to the eggs for extra depth of flavor. Sautéed onions, diced tomatoes, or crumbled chorizo sausage make excellent additions. Serve with pinto beans, black beans, or a warm flour tortilla for a complete and satisfying breakfast. For a spicier kick, use hot green chiles or add a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
