GREEN EGGS AND HAM



Green Eggs and Ham image

Provided by Rachel Farnsworth

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 eggs
2 drops green food coloring
1-2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • To die your eggs green, first separate the yolks from the whites. Do it carefully so that your yolk remains in tact. I put each component into a separate bowl. So for those 2 eggs I used 4 bowls.
  • add a couple drops of green food coloring to the egg whites and whisk it in until the coloring is well incorporated. Carefully slide the egg yolk back onto the egg white.
  • Melt a tablespoons or two of butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Slide the egg onto the skillet. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 2 minutes.
  • It is done when the whites are completely set on top around the yolk. If you want the yolk to set as well, just reduce the heat all the way to low and cook a couple minutes longer.

Number Of Ingredients 6

vegetable oil cooking spray
½ pound chopped cooked ham
½ medium yellow onion, chopped
1 (15.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 pound fresh turnip greens, rinsed and chopped
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Set a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat with cooking spray. Add ham and onion; cook and stir until onion is clear. Add the tomatoes and turnip greens and cover the skillet. I use a 12 inch skillet and I have to pack the greens down a bit to make them fit at first. When the pan starts to steam, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 12 minutes.
  • Transfer the greens and ham to a serving bowl and toss with apple cider vinegar.
