Green Eggs and Ham

» Not just for Dr. Seuss anymore. I admit, there's no ham in the photo above (and the broccoli is a garnish) but I've made it before with ham included, and it's pretty darn yummy. You could also use bacon if you prefer, but I like the whole "green eggs and ham" idea. (Also notice the coffee mug in the background... a Christmas prezzie from my grandma who had no idea I'd been ogling it in Caribou just last week. It describes my view of the dangerously addicting caffeinated beverage perfectly!)

Green Eggs and Ham

Ingredients:

» dash of olive oil

» 2 green onions, chopped

» 1-2 pieces deli ham, in small pieces

» 1/2 c. broccoli florets, chopped

» 3 eggs

» 1 T. feta cheese

» salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

» Heat the oil in a frying pan, and add onions and ham. When they begin sizzling, toss in the broccoli and cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.

» Meanwhile, crack eggs into a bowl. Add cheese and salt and pepper. Beat with a fork until combined. When the mixture in the pan is well-cooked, pour eggs on top.

» Here's a secret to an easy omelet. Stir the egg mixture around in the pan with a spatula like you're doing scrambled eggs. When it begins to form soft pieces, spread around into a flat circle shape like an omelet. Once browned on the one side, it's easy to flip over and brown the other side.

» Remove to a plate and fold in half. Serve with coffee and wheat toast for a well-rounded breakfast :)

Enjoy!
