The yolk is the really yummy part of the egg anyway (meringues
excepted). Try making French toast with yolks only. Egg yolks,
half&half and lots of vanilla extract. Soak up a bunch of it with
your favorite dense wheat berry bread (I like Brownberry Natural
Wheat). I cook it slowly, turning several times in a lightly oiled
non-stick pan. Serve with melted butter and maple syrup (1/3 pure
maple, 2/3 Karo light corn syrup). So good. Big tall glass of whole
milk too.

I don't eat like that every day, but it sure is a treat, and not a lot
of work. Makes my wife and son very happy.
