Creamed Eggs on Toast


Ingredients
5 tablespoons butter 
4 tablespoons flour 
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped 
3-4 slices bread, to toast 
butter 

Directions
  1. Melt butter over medium-high heat. 
  2. Whisk in flour. 
  3. When bubbly, whisk in milk a little at a time. 
  4. Add salt. 
  5. Continue to whisk til thick and bubbly. 
  6. Remove from heat and add chopped eggs. 
  7. Toast and butter slices of bread. 
  8. Lay slices on individual plates and spoon on Creamed Eggs. 
  9. Serve.
Notes: I decided I wanted to try the nutmeg even though I wasn't sure how it would work. I liked it. None of my kids did. Next time I will leave it out. I didn't have white pepper so I used black pepper (and only used half the recommended as not all my kids like pepper). I also used 5 eggs instead of 3 without increasing the sauce and thought it was a good ratio.
