                              Notes

                              For a vegan version, omit eggs and cheese. Add black beans for protein. For a keto-friendly version, substitute sweet potato with cauliflower. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 2 months (without eggs). Reheat on stovetop or in the oven for best results.
