Eggs, How do you like yours? I eat one a day and am looking for some new ideas.

Here's what I do often:

HB with a bit of dijonnaise (mash together) on toast
Poached over rice or potatoes
Fried in a breakfast sandwich

Also, any ideas on cooking eggs for a week in advance (besides HB'ing them)?

Thanks!

    Scrambled with some diced jalapenos.
    Omelette with diced lean meat of your choice.
    I like salsa or fresh diced tomatoes on either of those listed above.
    Lately I've been mixing a little whole grain pasta or rice with the scrambled eggs when I am coming up short on carbs.

    My favorite way to eat my eggs right now is over oatmeal. I cook up some plain oatmeal, spice it up with garlic/onion powder, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper sauce. I put the egg over top, then cut it up and mix all the yolk-ie goodness in with the oatmeal. It's SO good and keeps me full for hours. I grew up on eggs and grits so this is a great filling substitute for me.

    Make mini crustless quiches!! I love doing that -- I bake about a dozen and then eat two or three.

    I like scrambled eggwhites with mild salsa and a few mushrooms. I fry the mushrooms in cooking spray first then add the eggwhites and a table spoon of salsa. I also add Mrs Dash and Cumin for more flavor =)

    I just scramble it all together!

    tsp of hummus in them or put vinegar on them.

    I like to have one whole and one white, scrambled with a tbs of salsa. some times I'll add a 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.

    My everyday breakfast is an omlette of 2 eggs, 4 whites, 2 slices of Oscar Mayer precooked bacon (45 calories) and 1 ounce of cheese.
    Some day I add toast or another carb source.

    I scramble one eggwhite and one whole egg...add a little pepper and hot sauce. After it's scrambled, I add a slice of cheese (gotta work on using only half, or using just a little of the shredded stuff)...and I put it on a thomas's mini bagel and tons of salsa. So yummy!

    My favorite is over easy, with the yolk runny

    But for a quick meal, I like scrambled

    And when I really want a treat, I make deviled eggs with ranch dressing instead of mayo

    I have been using a recipe found on weelicious.com

    I have one egg, one eggbeater, one tsp pesto. Beat together, cook in pan. Serve on toast with slice of cheese. It is really good....if you like pesto.

    I like to saute onions, mushrooms and asparagus (when it's in season) then scramble in 2 eggs and about an oz of sharp cheddar cheese.

    I also like shirred (baked) eggs. I use the toaster oven. Preheat to 350. Use a small ramekin and put in just enough olive oil or butter to cover the bottom. Toss in a pinch of salt and a minced garlic clove. Put the ramekin in the oven until the garlic is sizzling and fragrant. Pull the ramekin out and quickly crack two eggs into it. Sprinkle some dill over the top and bake till the whites are just barely set and the yolks are still runny. I eat it with toast. (adapted from a recipe in Ina Garten's book Barefoot in Paris)
