Eggs aren’t just for breakfast. These days, I only have about 15 to 20 minutes to prepare dinner for my family and eggs are my best allies in the kitchen. Eggs, besides being a great source for protein, are easy to prepare and very versatile. One delicious way to enjoy eggs for dinner or lunch is with tasty salsa verde made with tomatillos and Serrano peppers.
