These golden skillet mini pies are breakfast at its coziest: fluffy egg, melted cheese, and fresh green onions fried until crisp at the edges and tender inside. They are quick enough for a busy morning yet special enough for a lazy weekend brunch, and they pair beautifully with a dollop of cool sour cream.
