This breakfast egg creation was delicious! Just a hint of Smoked Gouda, some Monterrey Jack cheese and some smoked ham and you have wonderful! Ham and cheese are all high in sodium, so I can’t eat stuff like this too often. But it sure was good! 🙂 This is suitable for all phases of Atkins and Keto diets. Primal folks can enjoy this as well but it is not suitable for Paleo without omitting the cheeses.

3 large eggs, beaten
2 oz. smoked ham (about 4-5 thin slices)
1 oz. Smoked Gouda cheese
2 oz. Monterrey Jack Cheese
1 green onion, chopped
1 tsp. bacon grease
DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 325º. Grease a 5″ x 7″ (or about that size) with the bacon grease. Lay half the ham on the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle half of each cheese on next. Lay the remaining slices of ham on top and the remaining cheese over that. Beat the eggs in a bowl and pour them slowly and evenly over the top to moisten all. Top with the chopped green onion. Pop into oven & bake for about 20 minutes or until center is set. Serve at once.
