Make it creamy and you’ll never tire of it.
This is a typical weekday breakfast for me. It’s quick, inexpensive and easy to nosh down in the morning. Once I learned how to make creamy scrambled eggs, boredom was banished (well, almost). Even if I grow a bit weary of eggs, I easily come back to this.
You can make it a lunch thing (or any other meal, really)
On days I skip breakfast, I whip this up as a lunch sandwich. Instead of slapping it on toast, I pile the eggs with some fresh greens, pickles and occasionally a slice of luncheon meat, then nestle it all between two toasts. Oh, and slice it in half so it’s easier to handle that way.
