As you stated, there are many variations of this recipe. I use tomato sauce (marinara sauce works well, too), 2 eggs, and crumpled queso blanco, AKA feta cheese (Kashkaval, Jarsberg or Swiss are interesting alteratives). :-)

My mother would make this for us when we were kids. She always added feta cheese, brings back memories for sure. Thanks for sharing it with us.
