Scrambled Eggs

2 eggs
Chopped ham, as much as desired
Shredded cheese, as much as desired
2 Tablespoons milk
Crack eggs into bowl. Sometimes it is better to do one egg at a time in a measuring cup and pour into a bowl. Check for any shells in the cup. Stir in milk, chopped ham and cheese. Blend together. Let adult cook in pan or supervise kids while they cook stirring back and forth in pan until cooked through.

 When using eggs during cooking always make sure you follow good hand washing and kitchen sanitation. This is a good time to reiterate this lesson. Don't forget to clean counter tops and dishes well after using raw eggs, also.
