Very good baked egg dish, but for our taste it needed some heat so I added in 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, I also added in pinch of baking powder for fluffier texture, I see no reason why this could not be baked all in one dish so that is what I did and it worked out well, thanks Pets!

These flat out rocked. Great flavor, moisture and texture. Using the ham like shells worked great.
