Eggs Delicious

Jason and I stayed at Huber's Ferry Bed & Breakfast after our Valentine's Day wedding. Our breakfast was so delicious! We had homemade bread, locally grown and processed sausage, a layered fruit dish and what Jason and I call Eggs Delicious. They were amazing -- so amazing that I asked for the recipe and have made them several times since. I even took them to work and everyone raved about them. So, I decided to share the recipe with you and encourage you to stay at Huber's Ferry Bed & Breakfast. It is a cute place, and the couple that runs it is fabulous!
