It's Saturday...a day full of possibilities! And another use for that coffee mug!




Good morning sweet followers. I am emerging out of my slug fest. I hate when I let perfectly good days slip away. But then again, if I relaxed a bit too much, surfed the web a bit too much, slept in a little too long.....who's keeping track? But today, I woke up...albeit alittle too late...and thought...this is a perfectly good day to make some things happen.  I plan to get a mani/pedi, finish up some work stuff, and get to that Wheat Belly book that has been sitting on the table since it arrived in the mail a few weeks ago.

To start off my day, I'm going to make scrambled eggs in a mug. I'm sure many of you have made this quick and simple microwave scrambled eggs. The other morning my son, who is home for a long weekend, mentioned that he loves eggs in the morning, but never has the time to make them and clean up and get to class on time. I printed out a simple recipe for him to take home from the incredible edible egg website. It's so basic, but wanted him to have something to refer too.

 You can totally jazz this up anyway you like. You can put the cheese in right with the eggs instead of on top as the recipe suggests. Try putting in a wedge of laughing cow cheese, or some crumbled bacon, or ham, or turkey sausage crumbles. If you have ever seen or heard of Hungry Girl on the food network, she has many jazzed up ideas for this on her web site. She even adds, salsa, dijonnise mustard, spinach. The sky's the limit here! The key is to stir halfway through to get that nice fluffy texture. Oh the possibilities!!!
