Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Home Fries

    In a skillet, melt half the butter over medium heat. Add diced potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden and crispy, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Cook the Eggs

    In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. In another skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, stirring gently until they are just set.

  3. 3

    Add Ham and Cheese

    Add diced Virginia ham and shredded cheese of your choice to the eggs. Stir gently until the cheese has melted and everything is heated through.

  4. 4

    Toast the Bread

    While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of bread until golden. You can butter them if desired.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Plate

    Serve the ham and cheese egg mixture alongside the home fries and toasted bread.
