Something about eggs, cheese and salsa makes for a perfect breakfast, brunch, or evening meal. No matter the time of day, eggs have an appeal that transcends all meals and just about every occasion. We enjoyed a batch of salsa and avocado laden scrambled eggs with shredded cheddar cheese, quartered new red potatoes, and a sprinkling of chopped green onions. A delight indeed, as this recipe will make enough for two servings, and easily adjusted for four or six servings as well. Simple elegance is always a treat and this quickly prepared meal fits both.
