Eggs, Eggs Everywhere

Now that I'm back in induction, I've stocked up on eggs again. They are filling, low in carbs (practically zero) and there are so many ways to prepare them. Here are some of my favorites:

  • Scrambled, with cream cheese. Whether I'm having plain scrambled eggs, or mixing in veggies and meat, I always add cream cheese. And it's important to add it toward the end, when the eggs are almost "dry." This way, you get little chunks of cream cheese while you're eating them. yuuuuuummmmmmm.
  • Hard boiled. I always have hard boiled eggs on hand. Dip in a little salt and enjoy. Tip on cooking hard-boiled eggs: Start with cold water, drop the eggs in, bring to a boil and simmer for no more than 10 minutes. They'll be easy to get out of the shell and you won't have greenish yolks.
  • Hard-boiled and mashed with tuna, mayonnaise and celery. A perfect egg/tuna salad.
  • Deviled. One word: Delicious. (for an easy recipe, click here.)
  • Sunny side up over a thick piece of ham. Runny yolk. Once I'm off Induction, I'll dip a piece of low-carb toast in the yolk. mmmmmmm.

I'd love to have some more ways to eat eggs. Does anyone have other favorites?
