LaCresha's Lens Focuses On...page 223...Cooking with JuJu

My amazing roommate, Julia, has a son.  He has a step sister who cannot pronounce "Julia" so she in the most adorable manner calls her "JuJu".  There is nothing cuter than this adorable little girl wandering the house calling for "JuJu".

Each morning, Monday through Friday at least, I make breakfast.  This started when I was getting up at 4:00am to get to work on time.  Working such early hours and long days a breakfast was necessary just to be fueled to function.  Since I was making breakfast for one, I figured it wouldn't be that much more difficult to make breakfast for two.  This began me making and leaving breakfast for my roommate about five days a week.
Today I decided to 'amp' up the breakfast and make something familiar with a little twist.  I took two eggs, (thank you chickie babies!) with milk, butter, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne and scrambled them.  This is traditionally how I make scrambled eggs along with cheese (that is non-negotiable, I am from Wisconsin after all).  Today I added in some cream cheese to give it some extra richness.
Then I pulled out the vegetables and meet from my left over Mexican.  Once the eggs were solid enough to not take up the entire pan, I put in the vegetables to warm them up.  By the time the Mexican left over mix was ready so were the egsg.  I plated it, added some salsa, and we had breakfast!

 Fresh eggs from my chickens!
