My teens had a break in virtual learning and I made this today for their lunch to accompany homemade waffles and delicious! The crust especially was super yummy. I also added thyme, cilantro and green onions. I previously made a Dutch Baby per another recipe. Per yours, the shrooms and sausage add so much more to the taste. Thanks!
