Preparation

Peel and cut potatoes into 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) pieces and cook in salted boiling water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and combine with corn.

Beat together eggs and milk just until blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Heat oil in medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute for 3 minutes. Add ground beef and cook until no longer pink 5 to 10 minutes. Drain fat. Season with salt and pepper.

Spoon meat into 8 inch (20 cm) square baking dish. Place vegetables on top.

Wipe skillet. Pour egg and milk mixture into skillet. Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) Sharp Canadian Cheddar cheese. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is medium thick. Immediately pour over vegetables. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and paprika. Bake in a 350 ºF (180 ºC) oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until eggs are set.
