    In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil until hot. Add onion; cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft. Add garlic; cook and stir about 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add kale, salt and pepper; cook and stir about 5 minutes or until wilted. Reduce heat to low; stir in mustard mixture. Cover to keep warm.

    Place English muffin halves on ungreased cookie sheet; top each with ham slice. Bake 5 to 8 minutes or until muffins are slightly toasted and ham is warm.

    Heat 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully crack eggs into pan to avoid breaking the yolks. Once edges of eggs have set, pour water around outside edges of eggs; cover pan.
