Notes: Not sure of origin but I recall Uncle Ernie telling me the German name and that it meant Farmer's Breakfast. We (the Nagles) had this as a meal for almost any meal. We almost always make this with Spam not sure if this is because this was something that was available no matter where we were in the world or in military rations. Many times we had it for dinner, which is when Mother served it with baked beans which they put on top of the egg mixture. I preferred it with catsup or salsa. We generally make this in a cast iron pan when available.
