Why don't you give coddled eggs a try? You don't even need a special
egg coddler, use a mason jar.

If you want them scrambled, scramble them first, coddle them with
butter - giving it enough time to firm up but not over cook to a hard
boiled texture. You could try milk (I like cream), butter and a few
seconds less time for your microwave eggs.
