Scrambled Eggs Recipe Variations

Ingredients:

• 6 eggs
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons margarine or oil

Procedure:

• Beat eggs slightly until yolks and whites are broken.

• Add seasonings and mix well.

• Add eggs, reduce heat and cook slowly, stirring eggs from the bottom as they become firm and cooked (but not dry) throughout.

Makes 4 servings

Variations:

• Cheese - Add 1/2 to 3/4 cup grated cheese before cooking, or add 3/4 to 1 cup cottage cheese and 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped tiny green onions when they begin to thicken slightly. Finish cooking.

• Crouton - Saute small bread cubes in margarine until light brown and crisp. Add to scrambled eggs.

• Curried - add 1 to 4 tablespoons (according to taste) curry powder to egg mixture. Serve on toast or biscuits.

• Cooked Vegetable - Add 3/4 cup any cooked vegetable desired.

• Gluten or Tokwa - Add 3/4 cup diced gluten, tokwa or other meat substitute to egg mixture before cooking.

• Mushroom - Add 1/3 cup mushroom soup to egg mixture or 1/2 cup sauteed mushrooms.

• Onion and Parsley - By adding a little onion juice (make by rubbing onion over a fine grater) and finely chopped parsley, a delightfully different flavor will be noted.

• Potato - Make a depression in stuffed baked potato and fill with scrambled eggs.

• Spanish Eggs - Cook chopped green pepper and pimiento with equal parts of chili sauce and grated cheese in butter about 5 minutes. Add to eggs before cooking.
