Green Eggs and Ham With Kale or Spinach

Dr. Seuss’s birthday celebration at school 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 artificial green dye though, see below for a much more nutritious (and delicious) alternative.

Ingreadient

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

Step by step

1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a blender (including the salt and pepper) 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
