Perfect recipe for breakfast or brunch, especially on a weekend.
Summer squashes or zucchinis or a combination of these will work for this recipe. One or two, depending on their size and size of skillet you use. You will need just enough to form a single layer.
I used italian blend of cheeses, it worked perfectly. Other cheese or combination of cheese to your liking will work as well.
