For breakfast we made eggs.  We just used whatever we had.  I was lucky that my friend had brought several types of cheese, a huge chunk of Brie which she had purchased at St Lawrence market.

-4 eggs
-splash of cream
-a handful of spinach chopped
-chunks of Brie  cut up (maybe a 2 inch by 2 inch square total cut up)
-2 green onions chopped finely
-salt and pepper

In a bowl mix eggs and cream.  Add the spinach and green onions, chopped Brie and salt and pepper.
Add small amount of oil or butter in frying pan on medium heat.  Pour ingredients in a pan and cook unit browned on one side then flip.  It tasted amazing...every few bites there our be melt Brie cheese.
