Green Eggs & Ham cups |
It's no secret that I like really really idolize Paula Deen. If I could, I would make her some sort of relative or in-law or my BFF. I follow Paula on twitter and often come across some gem recipes that way.
Today, in honor of Dr. Seuss' posthumous birthday, it was Paula's Green Eggs & Ham Cups. I didn't have any better ideas about how to fully experience the day, so I decided to go with it. Breakfast for dinner!! It was the most simple recipe ever, and I think would be something really great for kids.
You simply line muffin tins with thin sliced deli ham, then fill with bread, a spinach/egg/seasoning blend, and cheese. Bake for about 15-20 minutes and voila!! A fancier-than-food-color version of green eggs and ham. And I have to say it was quite delicious.
She recommends serving with toast and bacon. I think this would be a bit greasy/Atkins-y for me without the bread. Next time I'd probably go full-out Southern and make biscuits for the side. And PS that's my attempt at gravy on the toast. I can NEVER get it right, and I've tried a few times. If anybody has tips on making the kind that doesn't come from a packet, let me know! =)
Also - you'll notice there is no post yesterday - but I did not skip!! #358 was "Pull an All Nighter". We left our hotel in Orlando around 1:45 am and I came straight to work. Needless to say I was not exactly up to blogging. STILL COUNTS!!
