Earl Cooks Breakfast from Leftovers-Ham & Eggs & Potatoes

shown in my Perfect Grip Pan

Being frugal is a blessing...and a curse. I hate to throw things out, sometimes even when I should. My wife, "Turkey" as she likes to be called, will not eat anything past the 3 days in the fridge. She says i have an iron stomach and it is true, I can and will eat most anything. But this is not one of those. The Ham I used is from dinner the night before and the potatoes are from some I baked just days ago. Even "Turkey" would eat this, but she is not quite awake yet and doesn't much like breakfast unless it is for dinner. I on the other hand, LOVE breakfast, but don't often take the time to fix my own. Today frugality meets hunger in a simple and satisfying breakfast that takes only a few minutes and uses those valuable resources-LEFTOVERS!

Ingredients

• Ham leftover from ham steak dinner
• Potatoes from stuffed baked potatoes
• 2 Large AA Fresh Eggs (supermarket fresh, not hen house fresh)
• Fresh cracked black pepper

Instructions

• Dice potatoes and place in a HOT pan (Medium High) allowing them to brown on all freshly cut sides. (I added s small amount of pan spray for this browning, even though I used a NON-STICK pan). Potatoes are cooked through from baking so browning and warming through is all that is needed.
• Dice ham in, and add to potatoes to warm
• Scoot potatoes and ham to the side of the pan, and crack the 2 eggs into the pan, topping with fresh cracked pepper. Add a small amount of water directly to the pan bottom and cover. This steam will cook the top of the eggs while the direct heat cooks the bottom but please keep the yolk runny because when that yellow goodness runs into the ham and potatoes you have a near perfect breakfast combination.
• Serve it up with toast you cooked while waiting for the eggs to cook so you can soak up any residual golden goodness.
