Hungarian Squares

Inspired by The Elegant Economical Egg Cookbook

Reminiscent of a crustless quiche or frittata, Hungarian ham squares are sure to be a crowd pleaser, either as a starter or as finger-food. I particularly enjoyed the additions of paprika and sunflower seeds; mainly because they produced interesting flavor combinations, but also because the sunflower seeds incorporated a satisfying crunch to the dish. This is wonderful and easy to make. Serve it with a nice tomato salad.
