How to Make Your Own Green Eggs and Ham
If you are making green eggs and ham you should follow these steps:
- Crack all of the eggs into your mixing bowl and throw away the shells.
- Mix the eggs with a folk until they are well blended.
- Begin adding green food dye, add a few drops at a time and stir until eggs are a rich green.
- Pour the egg mixture into a hot frying pan on the stovetop.
- Continuously stir and fluff the eggs so that they become scrambled.
- Once the eggs are scrambled distribute them on everyone's plates.
- If you want to sear the ham you can cook it on the stovetop too, or just warm it in a microwave.
- Once the ham is hot cut it up with a knife and distribute it across everyone's plates.
- Have everyone enjoy eating their green eggs and ham--feel free to make toast too or serve it with orange juice.
