In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat; stir in flour. Cook stirring, for 1 minute; gradually whisk in milk. Cook stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens.

It would have never in a million years occurred to me to put a white sauce into scrambled eggs - I'm so glad you did, because these were delicious. The texture was a little creamier than regular run of the mill scrambled eggs. So good! I did add the ham and green onion, and also a little cheese on top.
