Eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs!

I have lots of eggs...

Basically I'm looking for some egg recipes. I'm totally broke right now so these are kind of my staple - I have lots of herbs and spices but aside from scrambling them, I have no idea what to do!

It's going to be a pretty boring month eating plain old scrambled eggs.... help!

Oh girl, I love eggs! I make them all sorts of ways and I'll send you some ideas. But in the meantime, search Pinterest for "eggs" and you'll find all sorts of delicious recipes! http://pinterest.com/search/?q=eggs

Get a non-stick muffin tin that has 12 cups.
6 whole eggs
6 egg whites (or whatever proportion of eggs/egg whites you want)
Mix them up

Find some "filling" that you like, whether sauteed veg (spinach and mushroom is good), or chopped up meat (like lunchmeat), or cheese, or a combo of them.

Spray the muffin tin with oil. Put some filing in each cup, say a quarter or a third of the way.

ladle the egg mixture into the cups.

Bake on 175C for about 15-20 minutes, until cooked.

I tend to also add some garlic paste, hot sauce, salt and pepper into my egg mixture.

You can then freeze them and take out and microwave for a quick low cal snack.

I just made exactly what you described AirCircle, what a coincidence. I made them tonight for breakfast tomorrow. I tried one and they are so good! I look forward to doing them again and changing it up with different veggies and fillings.

I spent a whole summer once living on eggs, milk & cheese, so I know where you are coming from. One of my favorites are fritatas. They are essentially the same thing as AirCirlel posted except I put the mixture in a cast iron skillet and bake it in the oven. Once out, and cooled you cut it like a pie and can refrigerate the pieces for several days. It is on my list of things to make today so I will have food this week. What I love about fritatas is you can put what ever you have in the mixture. If I want a few more calories I add some cheese. I also love fried egg sandwiches or wraps. I fry the egg and use it in a sandwich or wrap like a piece of meat. I love it with lots of fresh veggies. Here is a web site devoted to eggs. There are some really interesting things listed.

I love fritata too. I fry potato and onion with garlic (cheap) until soft, add in 6 eggs with lots of black pepper let it set, then pop under the grill to set the top. Delicious! X

i love frittata's too.

Whichever veg I have around the house, I boil up. Drain when cooked, add some eggs and seasoning (I like salt, pepper, few herbs and and nutmeg) then put the eggie, veggie mixture in a frying pan with some fry light. Once its set, and gone a lovely golden colour on the bottom, turn it over (I use a plate to put on top) and then fry the other side.

Or you could make a Spanish Tortilla (but it uses a little more oil). To make you slce potatoes super thinly, then fry with onion (or you could try boiling I suppose). Then when the potato is cooked you mix some eggs, put the potato mixture into the eggs. Season again and then add back to the frying pan. Cook unil golden brown on top and then turn it over and cook the other side.

Yummmy eggs:-) I typically use 6 egg whites every morning (the yolks are fine I just don't like them)

I love making an egg white omelete with salsa and cheese.
Deviled eggs
egg salad sandwiches
Egg in salads
Eggs, cheese and bacon in a high fiber tortilla wrap
crustless spinach pie with extra egg whites
I also take whatever vegetable I have and need to use, sautee it up with red onion and then add my 6 egg whites to it, it is yummy, low cal and filling.

OMG..too many things to list.

It's a pudding but amazing. I have tweaked it for my own taste to

4 egg whites whipped up to stiff peaks.

2 packets (enough for 2 pints) of flavored sugar free jelly (think that's jello in the US)
1 flat tsp of xanthan gum
dissolve these two ingredients in 125ml boiling water (whisking it helps to dissolve) then top up with 125ml of cold water.

Whilst the whisk is on slow add the liquid mixture very slowly to the egg whites bit at a time. When all together pour into a bowl and put in fridge for 90 mins.

I love the taste and amazed at how low calorie it is. It tastes like it should be a lot more.
