  1. I made it this morning in the break room at work. Very simple, about as easy as it gets! Made the mistake of using a tablespoon of butter instead of a teaspoon but that was easy enough to correct. Highly recommended.
     
  2. Super easy and good! Just what I was looking for, Thanks for posting the recipe.
     
  3. I made this for the DM as a light dinner and used 2 eggs and in a 900watt microwave I cooked on high for 1 minute and then gave a stir and then cooked for 30 seconds on high and they were perfectly cooked, for dietary reasons I did omit the onion and the ham. Thank you GoIrish, made for Name that Ingredient tag game.
     
  4. Quick and yummy! I used a prep cup so mine came out a little rounded. Thanks for sharing. Made for Cookbook Tag.
     
  5. I used to make these sandwiches all the time back in high school. I never thought to add the melted butter first, which would have saved me lots of scrubbing when the egg mixture stuck to the bottom. I think I'll start doing this again in the morning...a great way to start your day and a very portable breakfast, too!

I love to grill, year-round. The Williams Sonoma Grilling cookbook is one of my favorites. I will try just about anything and can usually pull it off...with the exception of baking.
