Ham and Swiss Skillet
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons sliced green onion
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 small zucchini, finely chopped (3/4 cup)
3/4 cup finely chopped cooked ham
6 eggs
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/4 teaspoon caraway seed
Dash salt
Dash pepper
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese (2 ounces)
Snipped fresh chives
In a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned ovenproof skillet cook mushrooms and
onion in margarine or butter over medium-high heat about 5 minutes or until
tender but not brown. Add zucchini; cover and cook over medium-low heat 2 to 3
minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in ham. Beat eggs until blended but not
foamy. Stir in thyme, caraway seed, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture over
vegetables. Cook over low heat, without stirring, until mixture begins to set on
the bottom and around the edge. As eggs set, run a spatula around the edge of
skillet, lifting egg mixture to allow uncooked portion to flow underneath.
Continue cooking and lifting edge until mixture is almost set. Sprinkle with
cheese. Broil 5 inches from heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until eggs are just set
and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with chives. To serve, cut into wedges; serve
from skillet. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
