Nifs Egg In A Cup Recipes

NIF'S EGG IN A CUP

Steps:

• With a spoon, gently place the eggs in boiling water. Boil for 4 minutes and place eggs in egg cups. Immediately crack top of egg off with a knife, salt and pepper to taste. If you let the eggs sit, they will continue to cook.
• While eggs are boiling, toast the bread and spread with butter. Cut toast into strips - I try for 5. Dip the toast strips into the runny yolk - YUM!
• After the yolk is gone, you can scoop out the white with a spoon and eat that as well.

NIF'S PERFECT POACHED EGG

Steps:

• In a frying pan, heat enough water to cover the egg(s) to a low boil. Add salt.
• Crack an egg into a small bowl. Quickly dip bowl into the water. Slide the raw egg into the water. Immediately slide the other egg into the water in the same fashion.
• TURN OFF HEAT but leave on burner! Cover pan with lid - DO NOT UNCOVER and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes. You can uncover to check them, starting at 4 minutes. You'll know they're done if the white is not really jiggly.
• Using a slotted spoon, gently place eggs on a tea towel. If you use scented detergents or fabric softeners on your towels, do not use them. Instead, slide egg(s) onto good quality paper towels, so the towel doesn't fall apart. Let sit for a few seconds to drain the water.
• Place eggs on to toast, a slice of tomato, steamed spinach and/or a piece of low fat cheese.

SCRAMBLED EGGS IN A CUP

Steps:

• * Add all the ingredients into the mug.
• * Whist with a fork.
• * Cook uncovered on high in the microwave for 30 seconds.
• * Remove, stir with the fork and microwave an additional 30 seconds.
• * Allow the mug to stand for 4 minutes to cool and continue to cook. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a cool plate. Make sure the internal temperature is safe before feeding to your toddler. Great for older kids learning how to cook.
• Sometimes you must repeat depending on your microwave and how large the egg is that you used.

NIF'S BREAKFAST TO GO (SANDWICH) OAMC

Steps:

• There are a few different ways that you can cook the eggs. I pierced each yolk, gently stirred each of them and used a plastic egg cooker in the microwave. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a cup sprayed with cooking spray. OR you can lightly scramble each egg in a silicon muffin tin and bake them. OR you can lightly scramble each egg and cook in a tiny frying pan (I've seen them!). It's up to you how to cook them! You basically want them to end up being cooked through and slightly smaller than the size of the English muffin.
• While eggs are cooking, open each English muffin and lay them out.
• When the eggs are done, place each egg on the bottom half of the muffin.
• Add bacon to each muffin and top with cheese.
• Wrap each breakfast sandwich in plastic wrap. I placed the sandwiches in a large resealable bag and put them in the freezer.
• When cooking, placed wrapped sandwich in the microwave. Microwave on high for 30 to 45 seconds. Unwrap, turn over and cook on high for another 30 to 45 seconds.
• The cooking time varies on how frozen the sandwich is (fridge freezer or deep freezer) and the microwave.

NIF'S EGGSTREMELY EASY EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Put eggs in a bowl and mash them up with the back of a fork. Add mayo and dill and mix everything together. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Put in a sandwich with crisp lettuce and cucumber or place a scoop on top of your salad.
