Ham n Quinoa Hash with Baked Eggs
EGGS. QUNIOA. and MEAT.
Win-win-win situation here folks. This recipe uses leftover ham…and would be PERFECT for a Christmas morning brunch…and a great way for you to use up your leftover ham from your Christmas dinner.
This could easily be made into a fritatta by first scrambling your eggs and then pouring them on top and let everything bake together. I went with cracking my eggs on top to get more of a baked egg.
Seriously I could eat this every single day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This recipe is Blake approved- which means I give it an A++.
It’s also one of those dishes, where it’s even better the second time you eat it. I am all about cold food, so I didn’t even need to heat it up for leftovers. Call me crazy, but I think all leftovers should be eaten cold. They just SHOULD.
Look at that eggy goodness. I like my baked eggs a tad runny…definitely not too cooked, but not too uncooked.
I’ll be back tomorrow with one last recipe before Christmas, but if you don’t come back to FFF until after…Have an AMAZING Holiday with lots of laughs, hugs, and love!
