Notes

We love to top this skillet recipe with diced tomatoes, avocado, sour cream, and extra cheese. It's also nice with salsa and guacamole.
This will release a bit of liquid as it sets, so we prefer to serve this straightaway. Leftovers may be kept in the fridge for 3-4 days and reheated. Drain off excess liquid before serving.
