    Just made these this weekend for a brunch. They came out delicious! I originally thought it was odd to put corn in an egg mixture, but it turned out really well. Overall a cheap, quick, easy dish that looks expensive to make. I served this with the breakfast sausage that was also in this issue. Delicious!
