Hello there....Hope your all doing good 😉😉
Is it me or are boiled eggs AMAZING.... Started having 2 or 3 boiled eggs for my breakfast and a coffee 👍. The eggs just seem to fill me up so much, for at least 4 or 5 hours. I thought oats where filling but eggs are brilliant. To say there just a little food (in size) they do the job. Thumbs up from me..
Thanks
Wayne

I agree, for their volume and calories eggs do a great job. A real hero food!
There is a fun thread over in the Food and Nutrition section of the forum called “what’s your favourite underrated food”, you might enjoy checking that out for more gems.3 -
You are not alone! I love my hard boiled egg. I have one a day. Usually late morning with salt and pepper. It tides me over until the afternoon.
So delicious! 🥚1 -
Soft boiled egg lover here. They're TOO good 😵

I eat eggs pretty much every single morning in some shape or form. Right now it is an omelet, but I also do scrambled, fried, or boiled. Especially love a medium boiled egg on avocado toast with everything but the bagel seasoning. Yum!3
-
If you really want to blow your mind, put some everything bagel seasoning on them. Thank me later

I love hard boiled eggs, but they don’t keep me full. Scrambled or poached does it for me. I don’t kno why it makes a difference. Probably cuz I can scarf 2 boiled eggs down in no time. I eat them too fast. Physiological probably.1

I love eggs! I've recently been having a boiled egg alongside my wrap for lunch and it really helps me stay full. I had something else for today and I'm feeling peckish already 1 hour later!0

Wayne, I have 3 eggs almost every day. It's just the way I roll. Try mixing them with 2 tablespoons of Birchbenders (keto/paleo friendly to everyone) pancake mix. Make yourself an omelette in a tad of Kerrygold butter. Throw in some vege and/or salsa for variety or just make one large pancake for some Grab-N-Go food as you head on out the door with another cuppa coffee. Pop it down, Jack me UP...Shoot me out flyin' down the highway. Oooo, I'm drivin' my life away Lookin' for a sunny day.

Yep. A lot of the stores around me have it. I got mine from Lidl but i know Trader Joe's, Wegmans, and Harris Teeter have them as well.1 -

Trader Joe’s calls it “Everything but the bagel.” It’s great on avacado toast too!!0 -

My mother used to make them for us and I loved a soft boiled egg on buttered toast, but I can never get the timing right so that the whites are firm but the yolk still runny.
How long do you boil them? Do you start the egg in cold water or boiling water?

You must become one with every egg 🥚
Or...you can set a timer for 4-5 min after you've placed the egg(s) in a pot of boiling water and go from there.
I'm the type who doesn't mind runny whites either but if that notion makes you do one of these 😱 then set your timer for 5-6 min.
The minute gap gives you room to experiment.
Either way, run the pot under cold water for ~30 sec before cracking and delighting in your protein wonder.
Lastly, try poached eggs if you wanna be fancy (while also being better able to see your yolk's "runniness")2 -
Thanks a million, Malted Tea! You are the Martha Stewart of soft boiled eggs!1
-
Let us know how it goes! Apparently timing can vary based on elevation so experiment with a carton 😋1
-
I almost always have an egg or two for breakfast. I vary how I cook them. Today, it was poached.2
-
Every now and then I made an egg breakfast wrap
I scramble one egg and cook it flat like a pancake about the size of a typical tortilla. Once that's cooked I scramble another egg and add seasoning, but you can add veggies or cheese or whatever you like.. and cook that up, I add bacon to mine too, then put a bit of mayo on my tortilla egg or spicy mayo and put the filling in it and wrap it.
Course I also use real tortillas too lol just depends on my mood, or if I wanna aim for more protein based on the rest of my days planned meals2 -

Try the microwave. Cover a small dish with plastic wrap and Nuke at high 30-35 seconds depending on how runny you want it. Quick and easy2 -
I eat 2-4 eggs every day. The hard cooked ones get eaten with no seasoning or anything on them (I refuse to call them hard boiled because I have never boiled an egg in my life. I was always taught that the white gets rubbery and the yolk gets a greenish grey ring if they are boiled).
My favorite seasoning for fried or poached eggs is Penzey's California pepper. It is black pepper with red and green bell pepper.2 -
Soft cooked where the yolk is runny and the white set is the only way to go. I wouldn't touch a hard cooked egg unless it's in something like potato salad.1
-
I'm hungry 10 minutes later after boiled eggs unless I have them with bread. Well, this is a sad topic for me because I can't have them anymore. My egg sensitivity has finally become full blown.5

I use a little red egg timer that goes in the water with the eggs. It's got a marker on it for soft medium and hard. It is great and I tend to chuck it in with cold water and the eggs and just keep an eye on it. It takes the stress out of it. You can get them on amazon or in the UK they're often in random little shops.1 -
