Noodles with ham, greens and gravy

This here recipe is a lot better than you might think. If it had an Italian name you might even pay for it.

Get you a pan like you might make lasagna in and butter it up.

Boil up some wide noodles. You can even use lasagne noodles, but they's a little thick. Better to make your own about half that thick.

Chop up a couple cups of ham. You can use Canadian ham, or Virginia ham or even Italian ham if you want. You use that Italian proscuitto ham, you only need about a cup.

Chop up two or three cups of spinach.

Heat up 3 cups of milk with a couple of bay leaves and some nutmeg in there. In a different pan, melt a little more than half a stick of butter, and stir in little less than half a cup of flour for about three minutes. Don't let it get brown. Stir in 3 cups of hot milk that you took them bay leaves out. That gravy should be thick, but not like paste or peanut butter. Get them lumps out cause this is top notch cookin.

Now you lay in some noodles and you put some ham and some spinach on there and cover it with gravy. Sprinkle some ground up hard cheese on there like parmesan or romano or gouda. Lay on some more noodles and ham and spinach and gravy and ground up cheese, and keep goin till you reach the top of the pan. Lay some gravy on top of that and put it in a hot oven for about 40 minutes, until that top gets bubbly and golden brown.

Damn, that's good eatin!
