Simple ingredients that most everyone has on hand. I did not do the layering as mentioned, but mixed together the noodles, ham, creamcheese and butter all together and then poured the egg mix over all. Made for Andi's Farm Cooking~ -
Simple, easy and just plain good. This was a nice Michigan Dutch recipe, reminded me of my grandma's recipe.
