A Really Good Egg Thing. . .



This was breakfast for just me today, but go ahead, extrapolate everything and make it for you and a friend, or your whole family. You see the ingredients, so I won't reiterate those. Let's talk technique...

Slice or chop the vegetables however you'd like.  Drizzle with a healthy oil and sprinkle lightly with some good seasonings.  Turn the heat to high, cover and wait until you hear the sizzle.  Turn the heat off for 15 minutes to give them a mini-marinate.  Get the eggs ready.  Whip them up with a big dab of sour cream, mayonnaise or a few tablespoons of heavy cream.

When your timer 'dings' uncover, turn the heat back on.  When it sizzles again, give it a minute or two, then pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. If you're adept with a flipper, turn the whole thing over when the top is barely set, in one piece.  If not - just wing it — spit our a nasty word or two - and flip it piece by piece like I do more often than not... 

Tear a piece of American cheese over the top and cover again off the heat, until the cheese melts.  (I know, I know...but it's a staple in my dairy drawer since there are certain things you just have to use it for, like a perfect grilled cheese sandwich with onion and tomato, and really yummy 'egg things.') Serve with sliced cucumber, tomato or avocado, because a really good vegetable 'egg thing' can always use more vegetables!!

Be Creative—Happy Cooking!! ... 😊 ... Lin
