Eggs Goldenrod, St. Patrick's Day style

As a Kavanaugh, I have always loved celebrating the Feast of St. Patrick and my Irish heritage. Our second son John was born on St. Patrick's Day 18 years ago! In the nursery on the day he was born, the nurses put a little green knitted cap on him-emerald green. He has always had a "green" birthday and this year is no exception.

Eggs Goldenrod is one of our family's favorite breakfast foods. So today, with a little food coloring, it is Green Eggs Goldenrod!

First, hard boil at least 4 eggs. 

Eggs goldenrod starts off with a white sauce. 2 T butter and 2 T flour. Melt in a pan on the stove. Once melted, add a little salt and a cup of milk. Heat on medium until thick and bubbly, stirring often.  Add in the hard boiled eggs, chopped up. We usually add some shredded cheddar cheese too. 

For a Musselman size family of 7 or 8 double or even triple the recipe. If you make too much, it keeps well a day in the fridge and warms up easy in the microwave.

On St Patty's day, add green food coloring. 

Spoon over toast for a yummy breakfast!
