Ham and Egg Combo

This recipe is a great use for all your Easter Dinner leftovers. It includes ham, cheese (Mom always had cheese on hand for ham and cheese sandwiches), and hard boiled eggs. Being Easter, our family had always dyed a number of hard-boiled eggs, so this dish was always a little more colorful than expected. Eating hard-boiled eggs that have had some coloring bleed into the egg itself is perfectly safe, but perhaps a little disconcerting.

This meal is easy to assemble after Easter because the main ingredients are all leftovers. This meal is also very easy to make, especially on a busy weekday night.

For me, I particularly enjoy the English muffins served with this dish. There is just something unique about English muffins. With this dish, the English muffin is both an edible plate and also used to wipe the real plate clean.
