Here isw an old family recipe, and others I would guess, that my Mother made on a regular basis. I believe that she got the recipe from her mother. Nothing was written down, but it was good and still is, It is an easy recipe; quick and fast. All it takes is hard cooked eggs, whole milk, roux and fresh grated nutmeg, salt and pepper. I do hope you try it as written or with your own versions. ie, try adding chopped spinach or corn to the white sauce.

Creamed Eggs on Toast

Ingredients: 1 T unsalted Butter, 1 T All Purpose Flour, 1 c whole Milk, 4 Hard Cooked Eggs, chopped – 1 Yolk reserved, 1 t fresh grated Nutmeg, Salt and Pepper to taste, 6 slices Bread toasted, Thyme

Directions: Add butter to a medium pan and melt, but do not brown. Add the flour and mix well. Add the milk, chopped eggs, fresh grated nutmeg, salt and pepper and mix well. If the sauce gets to thick, add a little milk. Serve on the toast. Grate the egg yolk over each serving along with a pinch of the thyme. Serves about 3.

Note: When you add the eggs to the white sauce, you can also add chopped spinach or corn or anything you like. Great on toasted sourdough toast or toasted English Muffins.
