Making recipes from my grandmother’s recipe card collection: Western Sandwiches

My grandmother gave me her recipe collection a few years ago, and I've decided to try them out! I don't recall my grandmother ever cooking the recipes she gave to me; it's probably been decades since these cards have been used.

Some of these recipes are from the great depression, and others were copied from magazines in the 1970s. As for this one, which is basically a western omelette as a sandwich, there's no date or reference to the creator 🙁

This recipe was quick, simple, filling, cheap, and very tasty! It calls for more butter than I'd normally use, so it's rich enough that it doesn't need cheese like I thought it would. I didn't have any sliced bread, so I went with a toasted sandwich roll instead. Sliced bread would have been better because it's just way too big for a roll (I mean look at my picture lol). Would definitely make again when I have leftover ham in the fridge.

Full recipe below:

-3 tbsps. butter or margarine
-1 cup sliced cooked ham (cubed)

green pepper and onion until tender, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl beat eggs and milk and salt until well mixed. Stir into ham mixture. Cover and cook at low heat until egg is set and slightly browned. Serve between bread.
