Incredible Microwable Egg: Process in Pictures, New Soup Recipe, 4 Miles, Abs

Thanks for all of your comments on the egg - i'm in love with this simple idea! And I was also surprised to see so many fellow mushroom lovers! Those who didn't like it sounded like me with oatmeal - you wish you did! :( So I had intended to take a picture of the tupperware for Mica, as she asked what size is best to use. Then I just kept going and took pictures of the microwavable egg process - enjoy!

I use these small, Ziploc containers about the size of a muffin

See - the bottom is the perfect diameter

So crack an egg in the tupperware and add milk and salt; I also add some Tony's creole seasoning

Now whisk it. (if you're transporting to work - don't whisk until you arrive)

Cook in microwave until done - they vary. With my microwave at work it was ready in 35 seconds. At home, it took 45 seconds. I covered it loosely with the plastic top set off the center.

Drop it on your muffin - PERFECT size. I'm so obsessed. edited to add: Stacy taught me to use a fork to run around the edges to ensure it all comes out in one piece!

Top it with your bacon and cheese (I use 1/2 slice of Kraft singles and 2 slices of turkey bacon). Microwave it for 20 seconds to melt the cheese and soften the toasted muffin.

Yummy perfectness inside

That's how it's done! I don't know if I'll ever scramble eggs in a pan again! LOL Moving on! I got sleep last night. Austin has been out of town all week (again) for work. But he got back last night unexpectedly so I slept SO good. I don't sleep well when he's gone. Boo! Anywho, I woke up with more rest than I've had since Sunday. I just got to work, used my lunch break to walk 4 miles, worked more and enjoyed my puppers' company. Then I made THREE new recipes - yum - can't wait to post! Now i'm off to have a couple of beers with Austin - YAY - before getting back to work - BOO.

Q: What's your 'kitchen trick' - a way that makes things easier for you? I still can't get over not having to make 'egg packs' to go to work (i.e. scramble a big pan of eggs, weigh out servings on foil, then microwave again the next day - awesome).

Q: The month is almost over. If you had monthly goals, how are they going? I've been tracking mine on the sidebar and think it's going pretty well! I've definitely had a busy month, at work and socially, so i'm happy I was able to accomplish as much as I did!

And as per normal lately, time to post another recipe!
