Ham and eggs is a classic dish. Eggs can be dyed green in honor of St. Patrick's Day. Doesn't add to the appeal, or the flavor. Ham slices can be smothered in fried or scrambled eggs and covered in gravy or syrup. Other people like to chop the ham and mix it in the eggs, for a delicious mix to place in a burrito shell. Since most soft shells are not gluten free, this recipe will cover a basic omelet that would be suitable for a shell. Ham and eggs can be eaten alone or as part of a larger meal.
