    I know you said you don't like to reheat them but what I do is scramble two eggs with a big handful of baby spinach and some chopped up grilled chicken the night before and then heat it up at work for lunch. I eat this almost every day. Sometimes I'll also put some rice in with all the stuff.

    Thank you for this idea. :flowerforyou:
    Maybe I need to try mixing them with other foods to make the food blend and taste better. I had to do the same with Cottage Cheese. It took me months to figure out how to prepare my cottage cheese where I wouldn't gag while eating it. lol.

    Hard boiled eggs aren't gooey...are you thinking soft boiled??
    After they are boiled, you peel the shell and it's gooey. At least to me it is. lol.

    My eggs have the same texture as boobs. Not gooey just squishy. Mmm squishy.

    LOL! :laugh:

    What is your definition of "gooey"?
    Maybe I used the wrong word. I like the mushy boob quote. lol. That's pretty accurate actually.

    I can't eat eggs either. My brain insists they are poison unless they are in cake. So that's my suggestion to you - Eat more cake.

    We take 2 eggs, a little half and half, a few spices and throw it in the nuker in a glass dish. My 3 y.o. daughter loves them and they are quick and can be prepared the night before (just not cooked).

    Spanish omelette aka tortilla - with potatoes or any type of veg you want inside. Good chilled or reheated.
    Egg fried rice - also cold or reheats well.

    You can prepare scrambled eggs in a microwave... whisk the egg solo in a ramekin or small bowl and microwave for 30-60 s - trial and error may be required for cooking time.

    I make crustless quiche that reheats quite nicely, and have made mini muffin tin quiches that I freeze and reheat and also turn out quite nice.

    Eggs are gross as hell, yet I enjoy them on breakfast sandwiches.

    Easy fix for on the go eggs: Just pop that sucker in the microwave (no need to wrap it as it's in its own casing) on high for 3:00. Shell should just peel right off with no mess/no fuss.

    I don't eat meat, so I cut up a hard-boiled egg to put on my salads for some protein. I don't generally just eat an egg alone, though I do like them that way, too.

    If its gooey you are doing something seriously wrong.

    I feel like you're making "Medium Eggs" are the yolks like kind of a deeper yellow color?

    The best method I've found is to add COLD water to a pot. Add a little salt or baking soda (keeps them from cracking/make them easier to peel), bring to a FULL boil. Turn down the heat and let simmer for an additional 4-5 minutes.Turn off heat and cover. Let stand for another 10-15 minutes.

    When done, put in bowl of ice water to cool down.

    I suggest waiting to eat them cos I don't like hard boiled eggs unless they are cold cos they are kind of slimey when warm.

    there is no essential NEED to eat any 1 singular food item.

    If you want protein and omega-3's eat some salmon or something.

    My eggs have the same texture as boobs. Not gooey just squishy. Mmm squishy.

    They should still be firmer than a mooshy boob.

    These also shouldn't be gooey...unless that's what you're going for.
