    Thank you for this recipe! These look so delicious and if I use low fat or non fat cheese, I will be able to eat this…first day on South Beach Phase 1 and so far so good…these would be great for any meal. I don’t have a barbecue but hopefully they will turn out ok in the oven…thanks again!

    This sounds and looks delicious, l like all the variations (ham, tex mex cheese, a little feta & parmesan) plus I would add Mushrooms, When it’s done sprinkle crispy bacon on the top of the egg and then Top it off with a cold tomato slice.
    Oh wow now I’m hungry!

    I would never have thought of this and it really is a great recipe. I don’t have a BBQ so I’d try making them in the oven, should work too.

    I bet this would work well with those little peppers I’ve seen at the store. Balancing would be the only issue.
