Buttery eggs

Scarlett · #1 June 13th, 2003, 10:58 AM

This is so simple and obvious that it's hardly a recipe, but as it helped me to eat more in the morning when omelettes and bacon were losing their appeal, here it is:

2 freshly hard boiled eggs, shelled and still hot
LARGE knob or slice of butter
salt and pepper to taste

Put all ingredients in a mug. Chop up eggs and butter together by cutting them against the sides with a knife [very quick and easy!] until the egg pieces are roughly pea sized and the butter is melted.

Eat with a teaspoon

.

A high fat and cholesterol, but deliciously light and creamy childhood favourite, now resurrected for the Atkins diet.

Scarlett, I totally forgot about Buttery Eggs

YUM! I'm going to have to have that tomorrow.

Or you could exchange the butter with heavy cream and add some herbs.

Never had eggs this way (or even heard of it). I know this is a dumb question, but...what do they taste like? Eggs? Butter? Cream? Interesting.
