Egg & Ham Cup

Heading home and I’m going to need a lot of take-out and dinners like this! Use a rolling pin and roll sliced whole wheat bread. Other bakery bread would probably work as well and might taste better. (Kids loved doing the rolling pin.) I didn’t spread bread with butter but that would be really good and help it crisp up. Fit rolled bread in sprayed cupcake tins. Add chopped ham and then a raw egg. Put a spoonful of Alfredo sauce (or not) on egg and sprinkle s&p. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until eggs are set. Serve with spinach salad and dinner is done!
