Scrambled Eggs in the Microwave
Using the microwave makes clean up easy on busy days. The addition of ham and cheese makes this a kid pleaser. Add spicy sausage and chives for a more grown up version. You can also top with some fresh veggies - tomatoes, capsicum - after cooking to make it a more filling meal.

- Repeat the stirring and heating for 8 minutes in total - by this time the eggs should be taking their scrambled shape.

I found the cooking time interesting. In a 1200 watt microwave I cook 4 eggs in around 5 minutes maximum. A tip to keep them firm is to use a spoon to lift the mixture from the outside of the dish - 08 Mar 2013
