Eggs, I love them

**RootSkier** · 01-21-2009, 01:20 PM

I am eating between 25-30 eggs a week lately (usually 4 every day). Damn I love eggs.

Is anyone else addicted to eggs?

**irul&ublo** · 01-21-2009, 01:23 PM

Sulfurous egg farts!!!!

Hi ceiling, meet cholesterol.

Yes, I love them too... I have breakfast for dinner all the time.

I eat eggs on weekends, and yeah, they're the goods. I've been doing fried egg and cheese sandwiches lately, doused in hot sauce.

I don't throw away the yolks, but I break them and cook the runny right out of them. Whenever I go out to eat and order eggs over hard, I know I've gotten a good cook when they've broken the yolks. We ate at a Waffle House the other day, and even after sending the eggs back, they were still runny. Christ, how hard is it to overcook some egg yolks?

I have eggs 5 days a week. Starvingif I don;t. But I also have sald for lunch 5 days a week. I figure they cxl each other out, heh.

I also thought the jury was out on eggs? No? What about crack? is that bad, too?

**GBB** · 01-21-2009, 01:30 PM

Yep. I usually eat around four a day.

Cheap. Easy. Delicious.

bags just made me cry a little.

**Hutch** · 01-21-2009, 01:35 PM

my quick breakfast -

spray pam in small bowl
crack egg into bowl, add splash of milk and tiny bit of water, beat
pop in microwave for 40 seconds
chop up a piece of ham (bonus: leftover bacon, also good with black beans)
slice or shred a little cheddar
when 40 seconds are up, put ham and cheddar in bowl and hit em for another 40 seconds in microwave
warm a tortilla over gas burner
spread a little cream cheese on tortilla
put egg/ham/cheese into tortilla
add hot sauce
roll into burrito

I have this down to a 4 minute exercise, including putting the stuff back in the fridge.

heh, I know I'll get a bunch of shit for that. I used to love them barely cooked, but I just can't do it anymore. The everlasting after taste, phlegm throat and death burps...just can't do it.

I eat eggs just about daily as well. My favorite quick easy ones are

2 eggs in a buttered bread sandwich with salt, pepper, and Frank's Red Hot.

Half a can of Texas Beans (or homemade chili if I have any) in a skillet, crack a few eggs over it, cook until the eggs are over medium-ish, then grate some cheese and finish off. Dump on some salsa and eat.

I used to eat three over easy eggs on an english muffin, or two eggs nuked with cheese and bacon on an english muffin as a sandwich, but now that I more or less quit eating bread on a regular basis, I usually eat four scrambled (but not dry) eggs with a little cheese and an apple. I stay full about 4x longer with the additional protein and better quality carbs.

**julesrules** · 01-21-2009, 01:40 PM

i <3 eggs as well

i have a plastic egg carrier for backpacking - nothing beats 2 eggs dropped into the jetboil with Korean spicy noodles. I also enjoy egg stratas, breakfast burritos, omelets - basically i love breakfast, favorite meal of the day.

but i don't know about eating 25 eggs a week though - There is a history of high cholesterol in my family...

**OldLarry** · 01-21-2009, 01:44 PM

whys is it always fat fucks lecturing on cholesterol? http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/cholesterol/HQ00608

How about if you run 3-4 days a week there, tubby?

**RootSkier** · 01-21-2009, 01:48 PM

Seriously, the only people who give a fuck about cholesterol also base their dietary recommendations off the most fucked up eating idea ever: the USDA food pyramid.

I'm not a fat fuck (6'0" @ 165lbs.) but I will say the cholesterol contained in 2eggs puts you over the maximum daily recommended.

Just keep an eye on it is all I'm sayin. I do love eggs and eat 1 every day.

**Brock Landers** · 01-21-2009, 01:52 PM

6 eggs a day, 3 yolks, scrambled with some american cheese (1 slice) sliced mushrooms, diced peppers onions and tomatoes. also a bowl of oatmeal w raisins or two english muffins w pb+j. or a bowl of wheaties.

once in a while ill have 2 fried egg sandwiches for breakfast, 3 eggs each, 1 yolk each, runny as hell.

combined with whey protein shakes and lots of salads and green beans, i have absolutely lethal farts 24/7.

I've been frying up eggs over hard to throw on burgers whenever I cook them at home these days. SO good.

I'm not even going to talk about people who think that LSD exercise is healthy, though.

um, what's LSD exercise?

Mmmmmmm Eeeeggs.

My go to pre-ski breakfast is 3 or 4 eggs, OJ, and a bowl of granola. Stays with you all morning.

Some good eggs tips:

- Cage free, farm fresh, organic, natural, and whateverthefuckelse eggs are worth the extra money. So much tasier.

- Room temperature eggs cook much better than cold ones. Put 'em in bowl and run luke warm water over them until they warm up some.

- 50/50 butter and olive in the pan works better than either one alone.

- When scrambling eggs, salt goes in the scramble. I also loves me a little parmesan in there too (Less salt need with parm).

- When frying eggs, salt goes in the pan before the eggs.

- When scrambling or frying eggs add a bunch of pepper to the butter/oil and let it cook a little before adding the eggs. Diced garlic is nice too if that's your thing.

- Most importantly, runny is right. Bagtagly is wrong.
