Microwaved Eggs in a Mug Longer Cooking Time



Experiment continues!  I used the same ingredients as yesterday but I mixed everything together instead of layering the ingredients.  I also increased the microwave time.  I like the consistency of the eggs better on this one. 

NOTE: Measurements are "-ish", meaning I didn’t measure any of the ingredients except the turkey patty, that was already a frozen precooked patty which technically wasn’t measured just removed from a package

1 Turkey patty, chopped (frozen turkey patty microwaved 1 minute then chopped)
1 TBSP minced peppers (I used orange and yellow)
1/2 TBSP minced onion
2 eggs
small splash of half and half
2 TBSP grated cheese

Add the eggs and the half and half to the cup, beat until well blended. Add the turkey patty, peppers, and onion in the cup and stir.   Microwave 40 seconds.  Remove cup from microwave and stir.   Microwave another 40 seconds.  Stir then add cheese and microwave 15 more seconds.  Let cup sit for about a minute.  Enjoy!

Microwaved Scrambled Eggs in a Mug - Turkey Sausage


Mugs and jars seem to be the kitchen all-around-convenience-quick-grab-and-go containers these days.  This recipe started out with eggs being on sale this week.  One of the stores in the area had eggs on a really good sale, so of course, I had to buy them.  After buying them I searched online for a variety of egg recipes.  “Cart before the horse” I suppose, but that’s how motivation is sometimes triggered.    

This is how I cooked the eggs this morning.  I might modify this a little bit in the future, not sure.  Experiment still in process!

NOTE: Measurements are "-ish", meaning I didn’t measure any of the ingredients except the turkey patty, that was already a frozen precooked patty which technically wasn’t measured just removed from a package.  It was 6AMBC (6 in the morning before coffee) so measurement mode was not on:

1 Turkey patty, chopped (frozen turkey patty microwaved 1 minute then chopped)
1 TBSP peppers minced(I used orange and yellow)
1/2 TBSP onion minced
2 eggs
small splash of half and half
2 TBSP grated cheese

Put turkey patty, peppers, and onion in the cup.  Beat eggs and half and half until well blended, add to cup.  Microwave 30 seconds.  Remove cup from microwave and stir.  Add cheese.  Microwave 45 seconds.  Let cup sit for about a minute.  Enjoy
