Korean recipes: Japchae (stir fried noodles with vegetables)

Bacon Egg Pancake Cups
Monday, April 11, 2011 Bacon Egg Pancake Cups About a month ago I made some bacon egg toast cups. What I really liked about them is that they have all the breakfast items in one neat package. I started thinking about how it could be better, and I realized what would be a more perfect breakfast for me is to have pancakes, bacon and eggs.
