I sometimes take this to work in the mornings and everyone who has ever tried it has asked for the recipe. Try it with your favorite salsa on top. You may add cooked sausage and/or sauteed green onions if you prefer.

These were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of eggs, but I really enjoyed these puffs. The cheese and herbs really helped to balance out the flavor.

These puffs were a little too oily for my liking. I think I would try baking them instead of frying them next time.

These were a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I would prefer a recipe with more cheese and less egg.

Not bad! I liked the texture of these puffs, but I wish there was more cheese. I'll probably add some extra next time.

These were okay. I thought they would be more flavorful, but they were a bit bland. I might try adding some herbs or spices next time.
