Vegetarian Huevo Saltado Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Vegetarian Huevo Saltado Recipe). My wifey is Peruvian and a favorite dish is called lomo saltado, which tastes better than the ingredients are strange -- beef and onions over French fries. This vegetarian recipe is perfect if you do not know what to do with those huge zucchinis and all of those tomatoes that you've grown. Free-range eggs from chickens would be a bonus. This recipe has a number of steps, but is totally worth it.
