Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Delicious and pretty easy for a breakfast. I used shallots instead of an onion and I didn't have any green chilis so I used some extra pul biber. I'll make this again.

    Totally delicious. I improvised a little bit to take advantage of the ingredients I had on hand -- used hatch chiles from the freezer and tossed in a couple of tablespoons of leftover pasta sauce (tomatoes, field roast sausage, onion, carrots, celery, and chile) to add to the mix. Served over brown rice topped with feta, olives, and cilantro. Outstanding payoff for not too much effort.
