Here's a little different scrambled egg breakfast:

Scrambled Egg Casserole
Cheese Sauce:                                        3 Tablespoons butter                                   2 1/2 Tablespoons flour                                             2 Cups milk                                     ½ teaspoon salt                                         pepper to taste                                                1 Cup finely diced Velveeta cheese                           


Casserole                                     ½ cup plus 3 tablespoons butter, divided use                                   ½ pound sliced fresh mushrooms                                          2 bunches green onions(white and green portions) chopped                                            1 cup thin sliced ham, slivered                                         12 eggs                                                   ¼ cup heavy cream                                  salt and pepper to taste                                               2 ¼ cups soft bread crumbs(made from day old French or Italian bread)                        dash of paprika
                                 
For cheese sauce: melt butter in heavy sauce pan over low heat; blend in flour and cook stirring for 2 minutes until slightly browned, turn up heat and gradually add milk; stirring constantly until mixture thickens, about 8 minutes. Add salt, pepper and Velveeta cheese; stir until cheese melts and the mixture is smooth. Set aside.

For Casserole: Melt ¼ plus 3 tablespoons butter in a large sauce pan; add mushrooms and cook stirring frequently, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add green onions and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until onions are soft. Add ham and cook over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Drain off any liquid and set aside.
Crack eggs into the bowl of a blender along with the heavy cream, the salt and pepper. Blend until light and frothy. In a heavy skillet or Dutch Oven, melt the remaining ¼ cup butter, then add egg mixture and scramble until just set; do not overcook as they will finish in the oven. Immediately remove pan from heat and fold in mushroom, onion and ham mixture. Mix well. Fold in cheese sauce and put in baking dish with another ¼ cup melted butter if not already using a Dutch Oven. Top with the bread crumbs and sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 350 until slightly bubbly and bread crumbs are slightly brown, about 30 minutes. Goes well with white gravy and biscuits. You can substitute bacon or sausage for the ham.
