If you're looking for a really good, REALLY healthy, make ahead breakfast dish...this is one you should make a staple in your kitchen. They are good to freeze and you can make a batch on Sunday to have through the week. I got this from recipe from "The South Beach Diet" book years ago and still use this recipe often. Well...with a Monnie twist. I'm sure you can guess the twist. LOL!
