Notes
- Let refrigerated eggs reach room temperature before microwaving.
- Fresh eggs are always best. Place the egg in a bowl of water, and if it sinks, it is fresh. Floating eggs should be thrown away because they are too old.
- If you are adding cheese, these grate your own as the pre-grated cheese doesn't melt as well.
- Add a generous pinch of salt, as scrambled eggs are bland without it.
- You could use 3 egg whites and 1 whole egg if you wanted to make a lighter version of this.
