12 eggs hard-cooked
1/4 cup half and half
2 teaspoons mustard prepared
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup ground ham
* Part two.
6 tablespoons margarine
5 tablespoons flour
4 cups evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon salt

Heat oven to 350° F. Cut eggs in half and carefully remove yolks. Mash yolks and mix with half-and-half, mustard, salt, and ham. Fill egg white halves with mixture. Place in a greased 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Prepare the following cream sauce.
Rich Cream Sauce:
*Melt margarine in a saucepan and stir in flour; continue to cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add milk, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring until thickened, about 15 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and hot pepper sauce. Pour cream sauce over eggs and sprinkle withcheese. Dust with paprika. Bake for 20 minutes, until just heated through.
