Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Prepare the pan of cornbread. While it is baking prepare the creamed eggs.
  2. Melt butter in a saucepan. Add flour, mixing well and cooking a couple of minutes to cook off the raw flour taste. Be sure to see note #3.
  3. Add the milk, whisking or stirring constantly, until sauce begins to thicken.
  4. Add the seasonings, ham and eggs. Keep warm in the top of a double boiler till serving time. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
  5. Guests serve themselves a square or wedge of cornbread, then spoon the creamed hand and eggs over.
  6. NOTE #1: The creamed eggs and ham are good served over toast points, also. Or, for glamour, in baked frozen patty shells.
  7. NOTE #2: Other meats substitute very well for the ham in this recipe: chipped beef, chicken, shrimp, sauteed kidney, etc. Even cooked vegetables can be substituted for a vegetarian meal: peas, beans, asparagus, cauliflower, broccolini ~ or try mixed veggies. A very accommodating basic recipe, you see!
  8. NOTE #3: You can flavor the white sauce to please your own taste buds. I like to cook a little finely chopped onion and celery in the butter before proceeding for example. A little dry mustard is a tasty addition, too.
