These Microwave Eggs are made in a mug in less than 2 minutes. Customize them to be scrambled or toss in veggies to make an omelet. No matter how you eat them, a healthy breakfast never got easier! Gluten Free + Low Calorie + Paleo
Years ago, my Mom taught me how to make scrambled eggs in the microwave. I have no idea why how I forgot this trick, but it's seriously the easiest way to make eggs.
Almost every client of mine tells me getting protein for breakfast is so hard. With these Customizable Microwave Eggs, breakfast never was faster or easier!
All you need are two minutes and a coffee mug. Two minutes people! Do you really not have two minutes? Yes you do!
All you do is toss the eggs in a mug with a splash of milk with salt and pepper, and you've got scrambled eggs. Take the mug with you and eat it in the car. So, freaking easy.
Better yet, turn those eggs into an omelet by adding your favorite veggies. I'm a big fan of eating tons of veggies for breakfast.
It reduces cravings and I find I don't need a mid morning snack when I eat enough the right amount of them first thing in the morning.
To customize my microwave eggs, I added broccoli rice. All the stores have broccoli rice and cauliflower rice available either in the produce or frozen food section. Have you looked? It's great for adding fluff and texture to the eggs. Kind of like adding flour, without the flour. If that makes sense?
These Cauliflower Egg Muffins are another way to use it. Another breakfast favorite of mine! Just make sure you thaw the "rice" before adding it to your eggs.
Wink, wink. Believe me, if I don't say that someone will ask so I'm putting it out there. Like the people who follow me on Facebook who ask where the recipe is. Um....click the link and you'll get it!
Whew! Technology. I know, it's so overwhelmingly complicated. But let's not complicate life any further with what we eat. Good, healthy food doesn't have to be complicated. Case in point, Customizable Microwaveable Eggs.
P.S. Egglands Best has my Mason Jar Eggs listed in their brochure. If you follow me on Facebook, you may have seen me share the news there (hint, hint).
Another easy way to meal prep breakfast. Slap me silly and call me breakfast sally. Okay, obviously I've had way too much coffee today and not enough eggs.
Enjoy this easy recipe!
