Microwave Eggs

I can make eggs for my family (of 7) in 10 minutes or less with only a coffee mug to wash! Spray a mug with Pam (or use oil or butter). Crack egg into cup. I like to give it a poke to crack the yolk. Cover with plastic wrap or a paper towel. Zap for 30 seconds. If more time is needed, cook in 15 second increments. Slide the egg out and repeat as often as needed. These are great for English muffins because they stay just the size and shape you need!

I do this all the time. Just don't forget to prick the yolk or it will explode in your microwave! I found that a plastic lid (like from cool whip) makes a great cover.

Thanks for the tip. Yes, that's true. I usually kind of scramble it with a fork and then cover with paper towel.
