I love shallots and I love eggs, combine the two and its a pretty perfect breakfast option, something that I whip up pretty regularly for myself. I didn't know quite how good they were to others, until I found myself in Tuscany and made breakfast for the crew...for the next three days! :) So let's grab some eggs and get cracking!
