What it is

Key ingredients
Eggs, bacon (tocineta), white cheese (e.g., Queso Costeño or similar), salt, pepper. Optionally, a touch of heavy cream.
Optional tweaks
Ensure no high-carb sides are served (e.g., bread, arepa). Confirm bacon is sugar-free (less common in Colombia, but always a good check).
