Just last night I caught an episode of "The best thing I ever ate".
The theme was breakfast and one of the favorite breakfasts mentioned
was a spaghetti and scrambled egg dish. It wasn't a spaghetti pie,
just spaghetti tossed with eggs and cooked together in a saute pan.
Maybe some garlic and herbs too. Looked pretty tasty to me.
