I use this recipe so I dont have to wake up my mom or dad when I want eggs. I love this with a little mozzarella cheese sprinkled on top. Thanks for the recipe.

I had a few extra minutes this morning and decided to add a little something to my usual breakfast of whole grain toast and peanut butter. This recipe has been in my cookbook for some time, and I am glad that I finally tried it. I used real butter, skim milk, only 1 egg, sharp cheddar cheese and no bacon (didn't have any that was cooked...and didn't have time to deal with it). This was a very quick and easy way to get the fluffy scrambled eggs that I love. It was a major bonus not to have to take the time to stand at the stove and stir, stir, stir. I could toss the mug in the microwave and continue putting together my lunch. Great quick meal for busy mornings!

Amazing! I will never make eggs in a skillet again! Very fluffy and couldn't be easier. Really convenient when only one or two people are having eggs, or when breakfast is prpared at different times. I used a pyrex measuring cup and ate it right out of that..no clean up! The recipe as stated with bacon and cheese is wonderful. I've also tried it with onion, green pepper, tomato, one cut up corn tortilla, topped with salsa and cheese for a migas taste. Also with onion, green pepper, tomato and cream cheese. Yummy all the way around. Thanks Ridgely for a great recipe that I'll use often!

Brilliant method for fixing delicious creamy eggs that are literally ready to eat start to finish in about 3 minutes. I used one egg and cooked on high 20 seconds, stirred with a fork, cooked 20 seconds longer. Threw in a bit of cheddar cheese stirred once more. Let it sit a minute or so while I put jelly on my toast. I love the fact it was in a mug because it kept the egg hot and I detest cold eggs. Thank you so much for a great recipe Ridgely!

been making this for several years now. I spray the mug for easy cleaning afterwards and can skip the butter this way...less fat. Glad you shared this with everybody!

I must give this a 5 star. My husband has not been eating very well. I had to make it fast. Well he did not see me at the stove and I just put it in front of him. I have you know he ate every bite of it. Served it with bacon bits and cheese and a slice of toast. Thank You.

Well, the power is out again, but I do have a generator, a microwave and an appetite. Had this with some green onion added to the raw eggs and some tangy goat cheese melted into the cooked eggs. And no mess or load of dirty dishes to clean up with no hot water. Now THIS is roughing it. Thanks, Ridgely!

Well, this was just terrific. Fiance loved it. I can't believe how wonderful the texture of the eggs turned out! I used vegetarian bacon slices and added part of them before cooking the eggs. This was great, and I'm sure we'll use this a lot!

For almost a week now we have had a combination of either frozen drains or frozen pipes, so cooking has been quite a challenge. We have hot water now, but the only drain that is working is the bathroom! So I have been making alot of foil dinners, or crockpot with the disposable liner, and going through ALOT of paper plates, and other disposable products. This recipe was PERFECT! It allowed me to make my family a 'real' breakfast and not add to my pile of dirty dishes! Paper coffee cups worked great with this. Thank You Ridgely!
