Green eggs and ham may be a classic Dr. Seuss book, but it can also be a delicious and nutritious breakfast for kids. Eggs are a great source of protein, and spinach is a good source of iron. This recipe is easy to make and is sure to please even the pickiest eaters.

Ingredients:

  • 12 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 cup chopped spinach

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.

  4. Stir in the spinach.

  5. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish.

  6. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted.

  8. Serve hot.

Tips and tricks:

  • You can also add other vegetables to the egg mixture, such as mushrooms, onions, or tomatoes.

  • If you don't have Parmesan cheese, you can use any type of grated cheese that you like.

  • To make this dish ahead of time, prepare the egg mixture and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to bake, simply pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake as directed.

I hope you enjoy this recipe for green eggs and ham! It is a kid-friendly, high-iron breakfast that is sure to please everyone at the table.

Story:

I first made green eggs and ham for my kids when they were toddlers. They were hesitant to try it at first, but they loved it! The spinach added a nice flavor and texture to the eggs, and the Parmesan cheese gave it a delicious finish.

I still make green eggs and ham for my kids today, and they still love it. It is a great way to get them to eat their vegetables, and it is a delicious and easy breakfast that everyone will love.

Here are some additional tips for making the best green eggs and ham:

  • Use fresh spinach. The spinach should be bright green and wilted when you cook it.

  • Don't overcook the eggs. The eggs should be cooked through, but not dry.

  • Add the Parmesan cheese just before serving. This will help to keep the cheese from melting too much.

  • Serve the green eggs and ham with your favorite breakfast sides, such as toast, fruit, or yogurt.
