Best Lindas Green Eggs And Ham Appetizers Recipes

LINDA'S GREEN EGGS AND HAM APPETIZERS

Steps:

• Pour the green food coloring in a bowl and gently roll the egg white halves in it. Your fingers will turn very green unless you use surgical gloves.
• Place the whites, hollow side down on a cake rack over a plate or tray to allow to drip-dry.
• While whites dry, mix the thoroughly mashed yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, and finely chopped ham.
• Season with pepper to taste. No salt is needed as ham is salty.
• Add green pepper, carrots, or onion, if using, and mix well.
• Before filling the whites, gently dab the green egg halves with paper towels to remove excess food coloring.
• When filled place in egg tray or a dish, cover with saran wrap, and chill until serving time.

GREEN EGGS AND HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat the extra-virgin olive oil and the butter and sweat the shallots a few minutes. Add the spinach and stir in the cream, season with salt, freshly ground black pepper and a little grated nutmeg. Cook the spinach, stirring occasionally, until the cream has thickened, 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to your taste.
• Fold each slice of ham or prosciutto in half and line the nonstick cups with 1 slice of meat each. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the cooked spinach into each of the cups, then crack an egg into each, making sure it stays whole (hint - if you're worried about breaking the egg yolk, crack the egg into a small bowl first, then pour it into the muffin cup). Season the tops of the eggs with salt and freshly ground black pepper and bake in the oven until set, about 15 minutes. Allow the baked eggs to cool in the muffin cups for a couple of minutes before removing them from the pan. Serve immediately.

GREEN EGGS AND HAM ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then add the egg whites. Swirl the pan to spread the egg whites into a round that covers the bottom. Cook until the whites are set, then slide onto a cutting board.
• When the egg white has cooled slightly, spread with the pesto. Arrange the spinach leaves, then ham slices on top in a single layer, then roll into a cylinder. Cut into eight 1-inch spirals and serve.
• Tip: The rolls also taste good cold and can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
