  1. Agree with Serena..myself is vegetarian too , we can use vegetarian sausages . thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂

  2. Nothing beats a good egg scramble for breakfast. I usually make mine with leftovers, but the rice would be an interesting addition I’ve never tried before!

  3. This looks delicious! I’m a vegetarian, but with a veggie sausage link replacement and a vegetarian eggless egg replacement, I could make this exact meal at home. It looks really good, especially with the cherry tomatoes and Minute Rice. Yum!! #client

    1. Hi Serena. You could definitely modify it and like the creativity there! I agree the rice can stay in. Thanks!
