I like omletes and scrambled eggs best, with hot sauce of course. I can only have my eggs super duper hard and dry, otherwise I can’t eat them.

In the mornings I'm always rushed but I know that I need to eat breakfast before I leave for work. My favorite quickie is to beat up 2 eggs with a teaspoon of half and half, add some dried chives, and a little salt and pepper. I microwave this in a small bowl for 30 seconds, take out and stir, and microwave for another 20 seconds or so. (I like my eggs on the drier side.) Then I take it out again and add cream cheese (about an ounce), stir it in a bit and finish microwaving it (I watch for it to puff and then remove.) I scoop this faux souffle onto a plate and enjoy. It's fast, delicious and nutritious! I've been known to substitute shredded cheese, and/or bacon pieces for a different taste now and then. Always fast, always good!

My favorite combination so far is green bell pepper, onions, mushroom, tomatoes, I usually cook everything but the tomatoes first and take it out and scramble the eggs till almost done and add the vegetables back, we usually top it with cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.

My uncle had a restaurant and this is the breakfast he would fix for me. Eggs and leftover mashed potatoes. 2 ways to fix them - heat the mashed potatoes then break the eggs over them and scramble in the pan or on the grill. Number two - warm up the mashed potatoes in the micro and scramble in the eggs then cook in the pan. BTW this is good with other leftovers thrown in (peppers, onions, ham, mushrooms, etc) Well so far I’ve seen over 50 ways here and my favorite has not shown up.

My favorite way to eat an egg is scrambled, heaped on a toasted english muffin that has been spread with a bit of mustard, with a slice or two of crispy bacon, and topped with the other english muffin half. Yum.

I think we like eggs too. ( The nice large brown farm eggs were on sale.......OK.) I like scrambled eggs with cheese, the best. I am a caper fan. I like to eat them out of the bottle. I am gonna try them in my eggs sometimes.... I agree with a couple of others the Eggs are People too post is too cute! Since I have 3.5 doz eggs in my frig right now…. I think we like eggs too.

A little culinary delight I like to call a "LOP [Left Over Pizza] Omelette". You know the drill ~ whip up your eggs, pour into the pan, THEN scrape off the toppings from any (recent!) left over pizza you've got in the fridge onto the eggs, add some extra mozzerella cheese, top w/ pizza sauce. YUM! And, oh yeah, that contest? My favorite Simmer post that mentions the word 'eggs' is: Scone, Scone on the Range. I happen to dig scones WAY more than I do LOP Omelettes.

But I love, love, love them. Especially after working overtime, and I'm tired and crabby and just want something to eat now! So I brown cauliflower in the skillet, then scramble the eggs and add feta when done. But he just turns to the freezer for a burrito. I don't want this to come between us any longer. How do I get him to realize eggs are magical, and he should eat them whatever time of day I make them and like it? Stumped in Savannah I think I'll just direct him to your blog. Your pictures and recipes are so perfect. He'll surely drool over one of your variations. Thanks! Dear Marilyn,
