My wife would suggest summer berries Pavlova.
I would go for an omelette made with strong cheddar cheese, chorizo and onion.1 -
Thanks everyone!2

What about a quiche lorraine (eggs, bacon, cheese and onions) or a breakfast bake? What about a breakfast burrito? All of which are excellent with lots of hot sauce and salsa!2

When food makes me gag I don't eat it. Just saying.1

I avoid eggs and fish, as they are both foods that I'm rarely on good terms with, except on the rare occasion (or sushi-related for fish). But I have found out that it's really the yolks that bother me, especially if mixed with the whites (scrambled for example). So I usually fry or poach eggs if I want one with the yolk (the lovely run doesn't bother me, as I can mix it with whatever else I'm eating). But that's rare (it's been a month since I last ate eggs, and it was the morning after overdoing the wine tasting).1

if they make you gag dont eat them.. thats crazy. My mom used to force me to eat canned spinach.. i would swallow it whole with milk. Well one time it came back up onto my plate. Never had to eat it again.3

1. Eggbeaters-- the Southwestern style is really great.
2. I like to scramble them and top them with salsa. Salsa in general is just the way to go.
Good luck!2 -
I completely feel your pain. I love eggs but HATE bananas! And bananas are in healthy versions of everything these days. Boo!2

Maybe crack them open and cook them first?4

Eggs repulse me, so I don't eat them. I'm still healthy. Don't eat eggs if you don't like them! :-)1

Without knowing if it's the taste or texture you don't like, it's hard to tell. I like the ideas so far.
Do you like french toast, or is that a no-no too? If that is something you've enjoyed, you can make it using whole grain bread, and if you doctor the egg mixture with cinnamon & vanilla, you might be able to get the low-cost protein without the grimace.2 -
Granted I can eat eggs for every meal as I love them...
However, since you aren't a fan, I'd recommend doing omelettes (with or without yolk) with some chunks of meat (ham or left over chicken) onions (green have the best flavor I think) and green/red peppers. The more veggies and stuff you add, the less eggy taste.
That said, anytime I've had to reheat eggs, like another poster mentioned, it makes me gag. I will never reheat eggs, they get all rubbery and plastic tasting

I try to eat eggs for their protein because I don't really like meat. Egg whites are a savior because I hate the yolks. I also use them in a protein waffle which is one scoop protein, one serving egg whites, and 1/2 tsp baking powder. They taste pretty good and no eggy taste or texture. I love em.

Have you ever had eggs for dinner on a salad? I had a two omelette with onions, mushrooms and cabot cheese over a bed of baby argula tonight. Im guessing you dont like runny eggs? I will do poached eggs with toast, if yolks dont bug you they add a great rich sauce like element to everything. And egg poached (you can cook them until they are more firm then runny inside) in a soup broth is awesome especially asian influenced broths or tomato based chili. This takes some experimenting.
Try to think outside the shell but if you cant stomach them no matter how they are cooked, maybe they arent for you.0 -
Eat them with a sauce or a topping you like. I eat eggs with salsa, buffalo sauce, or barbecue sauce. It masks the taste. If you're working out, people are wrong when they say just don't eat them. They're pretty much the best thing you can be eating when you're working out.2

Runny eggs are the bane of my existence! Haha!0 -
Oh I hear you. I can manage a hard cooked egg with plenty of salt, or a soufflé, or an eggy crepe, but I cannot be anywhere near a poached or fried or soft cooked egg. The runny yolk, the shiny slippery white, ugh. I can eat a few bites of scrambled eggs if I have to to be polite, but if I get some streaks of white that weren't completely mixed with the yolk before cooking, I'm going to gag.2

One thing came to my mind: egs as a substitute for noodles on clear soup. I beat the egg with a pinch of salt till it's all even colour and pour on the simmering clear soup. Cook for one minute. They completely take the flavour from the stock and the texture is like very delicate noodles. Or you can't feel them at all.
Apart from eggs hidden in pancakes and other cakes it's the least eggy way to eat them.
