When my kids were all little they loved Dr. Seuss, and his book Green Eggs and Ham was their favorite. In an effort to get them to eat eggs, I came up with the idea of making 'Green Eggs & Ham' for breakfast. They loved it and would often demand it for breakfast. Just multiple the ingredients by the number of small children you are serving. If the kids are a little older, then you can double serving sizes. This recipe also served as a good 'science experiment' when the kids were learning about primary and secondary colors...after-all, yellow and blue make green! I look forward to the day when I'll be able to make 'Green Eggs & Ham' for my grandkids.

Hi Cindy, I just have to tell you that I have made these colored scrambled eggs for my grand-kids and they just loved them! I have made them in many colors such as purple,red,orange,blue,green,pink and believe it or not Black! :o Yes my little grand-daughter loved to help me mix them up! That is the only way she would eat her scrambled eggs,is if we made them a pretty color!So anyone who has trouble getting your young ones to eat their scrambled eggs,just add a bit of color! Thanks Cindy for letting me tell you about my wee ones. Cheers, Nancy Wilson Northeast,England
