  1. Thank you for sharing your recipe Mickey. We enjoyed this for brunch the other day. Quick and easy to make with lovely results. I found that the egg was a little heavy, next time I make this and there will be a next time, I will add a little cream to the egg before I pour it over the cheese and ham . Made for Spring Pac 2014.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I'm a stay at home mom and wife. Earned BS in Hotel/Motel/Restaurant Management because I thought a restaurant career would be ideal! Before children, maybe. The hours were tough. Now, I enjoy being at home in the kitchen and love to try new recipes. My family is eager too and my husband is a fabulous cook. We are somewhat health conscious - following the food pyramid - but don't really subscribe to low-fat plans. I try to cook from scratch and prefer not to use canned foods, mixes or convenience items. Try to use whole grains vs. white bread, white rice, etc. <br />I'm amazed at how often I use Todd Wilbur's cookbook, Top Secret Restaurant Recipes and the Marshall Fields Cookbook. But, Recipezaar is my primary source for recipes. We rarely eat out.</p>
