Eggs

[cjsmith]

Did you know that if you eat two hardboiled eggs for breakfast each day, you'll go through more than a dozen in a week? That seems obvious, but I hadn't done the math until this morning.

Another thing happens, too. I like eggs and I wouldn't have thought I'd easily get tired of eating them, but I'm here to tell you it happens fast.

I've tried scrambling them and throwing cheese in. Clearly it's time to vary the menu a little. In most omelets, at least the ones I'm likely to make, the flavors of the random other ingredients overwhelm the flavor of egg.

One challenge with omelets or scrambled eggs is that they're not really as good after being frozen and reheated, and I'm not going to make an omelet fresh before work every morning. I already take way too long to get out of the house with all the medication-and-food chores for the cats! :-)

Frittatas refrigerate well, and are basically omelettes with the ingredients mixed in with the egg. (I don't know how well they freeze).

Ah, is that the correct name? I've just called it "scrambled eggs with stuff in them". :-) It's good to know they refrigerate well. For the time spans I'm looking at, freezing isn't really required.
