I know most people think turkey when they think Thanksgiving leftovers. But I know so many families that serve ham for Thanksgiving as well. Here is a simple breakfast idea to use up any leftover ham you might have. It’s a simple recipe too, so you won’t feel like it’s too much of a chore after spending so many hours in the kitchen this week!
Ingredients
8 eggs
1/4 cup milk {I used 2%}
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup leftover ham, cubed
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups chopped, fresh spinach
1 cup shredded cheese of choice {I used cheddar}
Directions
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, garlic powder and salt and pepper, then stir in the ham. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter and saute spinach and ham until ham is heated through.
Add egg mixture and cook while stirring until almost set. Stir in cheese and cook until completely set
