  1. Crack the egg, and carefully place the whites only in a microwave safe bowl or mug. Keep the egg yolk inside the shells.
  2. Using a whisk or a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  3. Microwave the egg whites in the bowl or mug for 25 seconds.
  4. Place the egg yolk carefully in the middle of the cooked egg whites, and return to the microwave for 20 more seconds, or more depending on desired level of doneness.
  5. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve with toast or in the bowl/mug, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 2 days in the fridge but best eaten right after they’re made.
  • * Please note the nutrition label does not include the toast or avocado.
