Grandma’s “Sexy” Eggs
My grandma has been making this for as long as I can remember.
It started as a concoction of all the vegetables in her fridge being sauteed with eggs being steamed over top. This recipe is my favourite version as nothing beats caramelized onions and jammy tomatoes with a little bit of spice. It is routinely a breakfast, lunch or dinner in our house.
