Egg Nog from Bret Pehrson

BRET'S TRADITIONAL EGG NOG

5 eggs, well beaten
1/2 C. canned milk
1 (3 3/4 oz.) pkg. instant vanilla pudding
3/4 C. granulated sugar
7 C. milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
Dash nutmeg

Beat eggs with canned milk and instant pudding mix. Stir in sugar until well dissolved. Add milk and vanilla extract and stir well. Sprinkle a dash of nutmeg in each glass at serving time.

(Bret's tips) * Good stuff. Works well if first part mixed in blender, then add milk etc.

(Bridget's thought) I do not even like eggnog and this is really good!
