I have a yummy breakfast dish or quick and easy dinner recipe for you today. I found these Creamy Scrambled Eggs with Ham on in my Simple and Delicious issue from May. This recipe serves up enough for 4 and is budget friendly.
So the secret to this recipe is cream cheese. Yep that is it. However, you don’t mix the cream cheese in the eggs before scrambling them. You actually mix it in after the eggs you basically cook them. Then you allow the cream cheese to melt and coat the eggs. You get these deliciously creamy scrambled eggs. Then ham and green onion are added for some nice flavor too. LOVE this one and will make it often. So good!
I did use the reduced fat cream cheese in this and it work fine. Only problem is it is hard to cube. It turns more into globs than cubes when I cut it. And a reminder for you Utahns, I will be appearing today on Studio 5 at 11am. 🙂 Plus, I have a recipe to pair this with for you tomorrow!
