This dish was a huge hit with the office pups who were lucky enough to try it.
This recipe is quite rich and should be served in moderation. Eggs are a cooling, Yin tonic. They are also one of the best sources of vitamin D and contain the highest amounts of lutein and zeazanthin when compared to 35 fruits and vegetables. These caroteinoids can help to reduce the occurrence of cataracts and other eye disorders. You may substitute light cream for the kefir for a tastier human version.Ingredients
