Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs

  • 1 ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

  • ½ cup finely grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese

  • 4 - 6 thin slices smoked ham, torn into pieces

  • 2 tablespoon butter

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 large spring onion or 4 green onions, sliced into thin rounds

  • 10 ounce mixed baby greens, such as chard, kale, and/or spinach

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl whisk together eggs, cheeses, ham, and 1/4 tsp. black pepper. In an oven-going 10-inch skillet heat 1 Tbsp. butter and 1 Tbsp. oil over medium heat until butter is melted. Add onion; cook and stir 2 minutes or until tender. Gradually add greens; cook and toss 2 minutes or until wilted. Transfer to a colander to drain, pressing out excess liquid. Stir greens into eggs.
