    Tasty if you jig it. But this recipe does not match the photo (avocado is mentioned as an optional afterthought, and there is some sauce in the photo that is salsa in the recipe). The skillet is not described until a step after you use it. I made something that tasted good. But this recipe first thing in the morning wasn't helpful.
