Description

Imagine a warm, comforting mug filled with fluffy, cheesy scrambled eggs – the perfect quick and satisfying lunch. This simple recipe transforms everyday ingredients into a delightful meal, ideal for busy days or a light yet fulfilling option. The beauty of this recipe lies in its adaptability; easily adjust the quantities to create a larger portion, or tailor the flavors to your preference.

With just a few basic steps, you can have a personalized, delicious meal ready in minutes. Start by whisking an egg in a mug until it's light and frothy. Add a touch of melted butter, its richness enhancing the egg's natural flavor.

A tiny pinch of salt is key – just enough to elevate the taste without overpowering the subtle nuances of the dish. The star of this dish is the generous blanket of melted cheese that tops the eggs. The cheese infuses a wonderful saltiness and creamy texture that complements the soft, yielding eggs.

Cook the mixture in short bursts, checking frequently to prevent overcooking and ensure a perfectly tender result. As the eggs approach doneness, gently lay a slice of your favorite cheese on top. Continue heating until the cheese is gloriously melted and slightly bubbly, creating an irresistible golden crust.

These scrambled eggs make a wonderful lunch, especially when time is short or you need a convenient meal solution. They're also perfect for enjoying at the office, offering a homemade touch to your workday. For an extra touch of freshness and visual appeal, garnish the finished dish with a sprinkle of finely chopped chives.

Their mild, oniony flavor adds a delightful counterpoint to the richness of the eggs and cheese. For variety, experiment with different fats, such as coconut oil or avocado oil, to add unique flavors. Softened cream cheese can also be swirled into the eggs before cooking, creating an even creamier texture and richer flavor.

This simple mug of cheesy scrambled eggs offers endless possibilities for customization and is sure to become a go-to recipe for a quick, satisfying, and flavorful meal.

    0.5 slice (from pre-sliced package) - each 3/4 ounce

Instructions

    1.
    In a small coffee mug (about 4-6 oz), crack one egg.
    2.
    Add in the melted butter.
    3.
    Then scramble the egg with a fork.
    4.
    Add in a pinch of salt and mix. You want to add enough to ensure the egg is not bland because the cheese you add later is salty.
    5.
    Cook the mug with the egg in 20-second increments. Stirring after each cooking.
    6.
    Once the egg is almost completely cooked with a small amount of liquid egg on the bottom of the mug, fold the piece of cheese in half and cook for another 10 seconds or so until the cheese is melted. Top with freshly chopped chives (optional).
