This is not a low-cal recipe. Or fancy. But it is delicious. The recipe is courtesy of Grands! and can be found here. This is a great dish for breakfast when you have house guests. It's quick, easy and doesn't leave you doing a ton of work in the kitchen while your guests chit-chat. I've made it several times and it never fails. Enjoy.
