Having a lengthy commute to work, I came up with this recipe that was ready in the same time it took my coffee to brew. By the time I get to work, I am energized and ready to start my day. It doesn't get any easier, just grab both mug handles and go. Feel free to add cooked bacon, sausage, or ham and top with chives.
