TOPPINGS:

After the soufflé comes out of the oven, add a bit more shredded cheese while it sits and cools for 5 minutes. Keep your favorite hot sauce handy as we like to shake a little (or a lot) on each individual piece of the soufflé. This is something you can make ahead and not have to worry about cooking breakfast at a busy time of the year. It’s not just for holidays … great for brunch as well.
