Baked Eggs

From CABERNET HOUSE, AN OLD WORLD INN
My grandmother would make this recipe in Holland in the cold winter days. It is delicious. The downside is this recipe is for about 12 people, so we would eat the same dish for three days. (Of course grandmother would not have used a food processor, like us modern cooks).

Ingredients
2 pounds Jack cheese
2 pounds Cheddar
3 red peppers
2 pounds mushrooms
2 red onions
1 bunch basil
1/2 bunch parsley
6 ounces butter
20 eggs
4 cups milk
2 pounds ham

Julienne ham by hand. In medium pan, melt butter. Add onion; cook 5 minutes. Add peppers and heat with onions. Add mushrooms and cook 10 min. Drain well. Prepare a 6 x 13 x 2-inch pan with cooking spray. Spread 1/2 of cheese into pan-spread peppers, onions and mushrooms over cheese. Spread parsley and basil over vegetable mixture.
