Denver Scramble with Melon (Hamapalooza #1!)

As we begin Hamapalooza 2017...

The "morning after Easter " breakfast starts us off with a simple version of an old favorite:  the Denver Omelette.  But, feeling a bit lazy, I decided to scramble instead.

I diced a bit of roasted red pepper, some mushrooms, and two scallions.  These sautéed for a bit in butter (hey... it's a holiday!).  Then I tossed in some diced Easter ham and 6 eggs.

Now, unlike my usual looong-slooow-cooking scrambled eggs, these eggs get tossed into a very hot non-stick skillet and stirred, whipped, and turned constantly for about a minute.  As soon as they appear barely wet... remove them from the heat... toss in a handful of cheddar... stir again... plate (warm, of course)... shower with chives... and devour.

And this year's Hamapalooza is off to a grand start!
