For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the skillet along with the ham and garlic. Feel free to substitute different types of cheese, such as Gruyere, Fontina, or Monterey Jack. If green garlic scapes are unavailable, you can use a combination of garlic cloves and scallions as a substitute. Serve with crusty bread or toast for a complete breakfast or brunch.
