When our lives began to get pretty busy as kids - soccer games, ballet and such - there was always a no-fail quick breakfast that delighted my brother and I: Gooey Eggs on Toast. For those who like their eggs {scrambled or otherwise} a bit runny - this is for you.
Note: Over the years I have changed this up with vintage Irish Cheddars and Havarti cheese in an attempt to make it a bit more - well - gourmet, I suppose. But, truly, you cannot get the gooey, smooth, cheesy constancy without slices of good 'ole American.
Recipe: Gooey Eggs on Toast {for two - or mama and two babies}
~ 5 eggs
~ 1 T. butter
~ 1/4 c. milk
~ salt and pepper
~ 3 slices of American Cheese
{In order to get the right state of gooey-ness, this is best prepared in the microwave}
Add eggs to microwave safe bowl, whisk together. Add milk, salt and pepper - whisk in. Add butter and cheese {broken into little squares} and stir in. Cook in microwave for 2 minutes. Remove and whisk again - return to the microwave and continue to cook in 30 second increments until the eggs are cooked to your liking. If they are looking close, but still a bit too runny, cook in 10-15 second increments as to not over cook. Pour over a piece of buttered multi-grain toast!
