You know I had to do it. You wanted me to do it. You need these recipes, because you can only eat so many boiled eggs with salt, or egg salad sandwiches. If you have more than one kid, you know it takes a lot of boiled eggs to keep those crazy egg dyers satisfied.

3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons oil
3 large potatoes, peeled,cooked and cubed
1/2 lb. ham, chopped
1 tablespoon finely minced onion
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 hard cooked eggs, peeled and sliced
 
METHOD
In large skillet, heat butter and oil until butter is melted. Add potatoes, ham and onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring and turning mixture over until crispy brown.
While hash is cooking, make mustard cream sauce. In small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Stir in flour to make a roux. Add milk and stir over low heat until sauce begins to thicken. Stir in mustard. Continue cooking until sauce is thick. Add sliced eggs to sauce, but do not stir.
