Eggs are the most perfect food. Packed with quality proteins, choline, selenium, folate, zinc, iron, thiamine, lecithin, Vit D, iodine …. and almost zero carbs which is why we eat so many of them.

Healthy breakfasts for children

My children (7, 10 and 13) all make their own scrambled eggs. They add cheese, salami, ham, last night’s veggies, butter and whatever they like. Scrambled eggs are a superb way to use up any leftovers.

  2. Steve, From Noosa,
    Hi Libby, Love The recipes, But I don’t Use microwaves, could you Cook Old Way, And Add Microwave Use between recipes, Just A thought.

    1. For sure, it is totally up to you how you choose to cook this, but by only providing recipes without a microwave option, shuts off a huge part of the population, who probably need help the most. I like to help people find the easiest way possible to make real food, real easy. Microwaves don’t denature food or nutrients any more than an oven does but I can understand some hesitation for some.

    Could i use water instead of milk, i don’t buy milk, or maybe cream. Thank you.

    1. Sure, or you could even do without any liquid. I am still stuck in my old ways of diluting the eggs in some way to make them lighter, but it’s not really necessary.
