    Thank you, Naomi!

    Edit: Also, Psy's crazy microwave shenanigans work. I just tried it.

    I use one of these bad boys

    I spray it with olive oil set a fire under it, and when the oil starts steaming I crack the egg on. When the bottom is solid enough to hold the uncooked part I flip the egg.

    I like to mix scrambled eggs into my rice c:
    Scrambled eggs are my favourite along with fried. So easy to make and so delicious. You gotta put some salt in them before you put em in the pan though! Some pepper too if you like. I also like to add a tablespoon or two (depending on how many eggs I'm making) of cream into the eggs before cooking.

    In general for eggs I think it's very important not to overcook them, which is almost always easy. You can do the lid thing for fried/scrambled and maybe something like what noxy described for boiled, although I tend to just go on careful timing instead. Works pretty well once you've learned it.

    i just fry my eggs and put them on a slice of bread. Sometimes I put a slice or two of cheese on top of the eggs as i fry them and let it melt all over them. Add seasoning as needed. I just use some herb salt or whatever.

    My ex liked his over well.

    I like over easy with initiated bread.

    I have no idea why, but my mom could/would only do 1 at a time in the skillet. My dad's mind was blown when he saw me doing 3 at the same time lol.

    If you're doing microwaved eggs, for the love of Jesus spray the bowl down with non stick cooking spray or rub it down with olive oil. The bowl can be a bitch to clean afterwards.

    Sometimes, sometimes not. I like them soft and sort of thick flowing in the middle but not completely solid. If it was a steak I'd call it medium.

    I was going to post that website, it's great. You can make so much with eggs!

    My personal favourites are omelettes, scrambled eggs on toast and dippy eggs and soldiers.

    I'm going to try some things from incredible egg, though.

    E: oh oh oh I forgot eggs benedict. That is delicious.

    I usually boil them and then make deviled eggs or I just cook the egg whites in a sauce pan. I just spray with the pan with PAM and then sprinkle a little sea salt and black pepper on it. It's good to good in just a few minutes. Deviled eggs are the best way to eat eggs though imo and the only time I will eat the yoke, but even then I sometimes take the yellow out of the deviled eggs. And yeah there's french toast, but I honestly hate when people use too much egg for the toast. I want it to be more cinnamon-y and less egg-y.

    Do you add the cinnamon to the egg mixture, so then you cook the cinnamon into the toast, or do you sprinkle the cinnamon on after you cooked it?

    There are some great recipes on I breathe... I'm hungry specifically heavily using eggs right now. They are gluten/lowcarb so it may help a lot, pike. I want to try fettuccine Alfredo

    Pikey have you done any experimenting yet?

    My favorite way to have eggs is in huevos rancheros. Tortilla, over-easy egg, skillet potatoes, avocado, cheese, salsa. The most beautiful breakfast ever.

    One-eyed chickens are also super easy to make.

    If I'm making simple scrambled eggs, I usually always atleast chop up some onion to put in there. I've kindof overdone myself on peppers in my eggs lately, getting sick of it

    Huevos rancheros are great!
