Green Eggs {and Ham}

Until I had kids in school I never realized how many holidays and special occasions could be celebrated. Aside from the standard ones like Halloween and Valentine’s Day there’s also the 100th Day of School, President’s Day, and Football Fridays. And apparently tomorrow is Dr. Seuss’s birthday, which means it’s yet another day filled with fun themed activities including food of course! Plus who can resist bringing one of Dr. Seuss’s most legendary books to life…Green Eggs and Ham! No need to break out the nasty artificial green dye though, see below for a much more nutritious (and delicious) alternative. Eggs and kale make a surprisingly good combination and once you’re done you can check “eating your greens for the day” off your list. But whether you are a Dr. Seuss fan or not you can still enjoy this dish for breakfast (lunch or dinner). I promise it will taste just as good without the colorful toothpicks. :) Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 2 tablespoons onion, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup kale, washed with big stems removed (you can also use spinach)
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • butter, for frying

Optional Sides

  • ham
  • whole-wheat biscuits, see below for link to recipe

Instructions

  1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a blender (including the S&P) and blend until the greens are pureed into little bits.
  2. Heat a big pat of butter (don’t be stingy!) in a frying pan over medium low heat.
  3. Once the butter has melted pour the egg mixture into the warm pan. Let it sit for a couple minutes before you begin to stir and scramble with a spatula. Cook until eggs are done all the way through.
  4. Serve warm with ham and biscuits


Recipe Notes

We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.

    Thank you so much for this recipe! Every other recipe I’ve checked uses food coloring. I replaced the kale with spinach and the eggs came out nicely green.

    Thank you,
    B
