BAKED EGGS WITH CANADIAN BACON, SPINACH, AND AGED CHEDDAR

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F and arrange rack in middle. Butter 4 (6-ounce) ramekins and set aside.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. When it foams, add onion, season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add spinach and cook until spinach is well wilted, about 2 minutes.
• Place ham on bottom of ramekins and top with spinach. Crack eggs into ramekins, place 1 tablespoon cream over each egg, and divide half of cheese evenly among ramekins.
• Put ramekins on a baking sheet and bake, rotating pan halfway through baking, until whites are just set but yolks are still runny, about 15 to 18 minutes.

2BLEU'S COUNTRY HAM BACON (AND EGGS)

Steps:

• Cut the ham slices into about 3" pieces, removing the bone if it has one. The pieces do not have to be cut even, as I usually separate around the fat, leaving some fat for flavor.
• CURED HAM ONLY: (If using leftover baked ham, see instructions below). Place the salt cured ham slices in a large *cast iron* pan (it's okay if they overlap at this point) and add the water, enough to cover the ham slices completely. The water may cook down some, so add more as you go as this removes the saltiness from the ham. The more water in the pan, the better.
• Cook over med heat to a gentle simmer for about 10-15 minutes until most of the salt has dissipated into the water, turning the ham a few times to 'shake the salt out'. Remove ham slices and (using a good potholder) rinse and wipe the skillet with a clean dishcloth. Just a quick rinse/wipe to remove any salt and residue.
• For BOTH types of ham: Place pan back on stove-top at a medium heat. Add the oil to the pan followed by the ham slices. Lay them in a single layer enough to fill pan but not overcrowd them. Do in batches if necessary. Cook for about 10-20 minutes depending on thickness, turning occasionally until browned. Drain ham onto paper towels. Add more oil to the pan if necessary for the next batch, although the ham will usually make it's own in the pan from the previous batch. You only need enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
• EGGS: (about 15 minutes to cook) To a *nonstick* skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat (slow cooked scrambled eggs turn out extremely smooth and creamy). Beat eggs and seasonings until very well blended. When butter has melted, pour in the eggs. As they begin to firm, push them around a bit using a spatula. Continue cooking eggs low and slow while ham is cooking in the iron skillet. The ham should be done first, just place a piece of foil over top to keep warm.
• When the eggs are about a minute from your desired doneness, place onto plates and serve with ham. (remember: scrambled eggs continue to cook after you remove them from the heat).

CREAMY HAM 'N' EGG CASSEROLE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, ham, salt and pepper. Combine the egg and sour cream; add to potato mixture and gently toss to coat. Transfer to a greased 11x7-in. baking dish. , Toss bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over casserole. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20 minutes or until a thermometer reaches 160°.

CREAMED BACON (OR HAM) AND EGGS

Steps:

• chop the bacon slices into small pieces and fry till crisp. Drain bacon on some paper towels and set aside. Wipe out the pan and return to heat.
• Drop the butter into the pan and melt. Saute the shallots or onion till soft.
• Add flour and cook for a minute, wisking to soak up the butter and cook off the flour taste.
• Add the chicken buillon, worcestershire, hot sauce, salt and pepper.
• Slowly pour in milk, wisking constantly and cook till mixture thickens (about 4-5 minutes).
• Add the eggs, bacon (or leftover ham) and cheese. Stir till cheese is melted.
• Serve over toasted bread or English muffins. We have even used toasted hamburger buns when we didn't have sliced sandwich bread on hand.
• Garnish with chopped parsley, if using.
