Eggs Cooked in Ham Cups

This makes for a good presentation,
cooked eggs inside cups of sliced ham.
Serve these along side hash browns.

Ingredients:
Cooking spray
8 slices sugar-cured deli ham
1 ounce shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 scallion, thinly sliced
8 large eggs
8 dashes of black pepper

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. 

Coat 8 muffin cups with cooking spray. Set aside.

Position 1 slice of ham in each of the muffin cups, 

doubling each slice over to insure that there are no 

holes in the bottom of the ham “cups.” 

Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of the cheese 

and about 1/2 tablespoon scallions 

in the bottom of each cup.

Place one raw egg in each ham cup. 

Sprinkle each egg lightly with pepper. 

Bake about 15 minutes or until done. 

Carefully remove the egg cups using 

the ham to lift them onto serving plates.
