SPLIT PLATE SERVING

Adult: Serve the adult portion as described above.

Kid: Serve the kid portion as described above.

If something fails

Eggs are rubbery: Heat was too high or you cooked too long after covering. Medium heat, 1-2 min covered max.

Steak is chewy: Chop it smaller. It's pre-cooked — you just need to warm and crisp the edges.

Feels too lean / light: Add a slice of avocado or a drizzle of olive oil on top. Don't change the base recipe.

Cheese didn't melt: You didn't cover the pan. The steam melts the cheese — lid is non-negotiable.

Storage and reheating

Store: Best made fresh — 10 min is fast enough. Don't batch this.

Reheat: N/A — each one is made fresh in 10 min.

Lasts: N/A — cook per serving.
