I've spoken with more than one MD that has endorsed regular consumption
of whole eggs. Dr. Kennady (my first primary care MD before he retired)
called whole eggs "a bargain in nutrition".

They contain pretty much everything you need to live and if you don't
pig out on them and keep the rest of your diet relatively low fat, they
don't contribute greatly to daily fat calories.

And they are highly versatile, fit into many recipes and actually taste
good. They also tend to be easier to digest than other (non-powdered)
protein sources.

Good stuff. :-)

We mostly consume them in omelets, scrambled eggs, poached, soft
boiled, hard boiled (sometimes deviled) and in fritattas. Egg drop soup
also works well.

Other ideas?

I tell my patients in the hospital that the egg is perhaps the perfect
food,because consider: one egg has everything necessary to build one
baby chick! EVERYTHING!

Pretty cool when you think about it.

The connection between dietary cholesterol and heart/artery disease is
iffy at best - lots to read on this subject on the Internet for free
these days.

Just last night I caught an episode of "The best thing I ever ate".
The theme was breakfast and one of the favorite breakfasts mentioned
was a spaghetti and scrambled egg dish. It wasn't a spaghetti pie,
just spaghetti tossed with eggs and cooked together in a saute pan.
Maybe some garlic and herbs too. Looked pretty tasty to me.

Google up some recipes for pasta carbonara. It's a pretty common
dish. Tradtionally ,you don't saute after combining the egg and
pasta, but let the very hot just drained pasta cook the egg to proper
doneness.

After I posted, I realized it was basically carbonara. Just no
bacon/pancetta.

Kent dear, get with the program. :-) Consuming cholesterol does not
raise your serum cholesterol:

You can also break a raw egg into hot soups (with or without noodles)
and it cooks up rapidly. Leaving it whole and covering the steaming dish
for a few minutes also makes for an attractive presentation. We were
talking about this last week at work in the break room with a couple of
chinese co-workers that did this a lot.

Custards also work but they'd have to be sugar free.

Have not tried toad in the hole. That will be a "must try" one of these

Poached in tomato sauce I've not tried. Cool!

Generally, a lot of souffles use just the whites. I'm particularly
fond of cheese souffle which uses both yolks and whites. You can use
up a lot of bits and odds and ends of different cheeses in cheese
souffle, if you are the type of cook who has bits of cheese lying
around getting old. You can use yolks up by making cream puffs -
either mini for appetizers (to fill with salmon mousse or something)
or maxi for eclairs. I'm gettin' hungry, time for dinner. LOL.

That's pretty much the fate of any leftover cooked pasta in our
household Not for breakfast though. Toss in some leftover roasted
bell or poblano peppers (which we often have). Sometimes Asian-flavoured
with oyster sauce or soy sauce and the wilted lettuce plus chopped
salad/spring onions.

Egg yolks make one hell of a binder/thickener for soups. Egg whites
make that magic-mystery we call meringue. And who has not made an egg
wash for breading meats et al?

I usually eat eggs for brekkie about once a week. 3, eyes open, cooked
in a 7" non-stick skillet with a glass lid.

Oh, and don't forget (the largely unappreciated) shirred eggs.

For the tipplers among us, there's always the golden fizz. Popular in
the past was raw egg into a mug of beer. For more drinks, see:

http://www.nj.com/homegarden/enterta..._egg_cock.html

And last but not least, who doesn't like Egg Noodles? Think
carbonara.....

Actually that's an abortion only if the egg is fertilized. Also,
remember that beans, peas and any plant seed contains an embryo. That
goes for nuts, too.

Aex, who knows that one spends one's life looking for something to eat
while avoiding being eaten (we all lose this contest. The fungi always
win in the end.)

Start with a carbonara and no need to scramble the eggs.

Personally, I wouldnt hold much stock ('scuse the pun!) on such things
from most MDs (at least based on what I've seen in Aus with our GPs) -
even though in this case I wholeheartedly agree

Indeed they are.

A nourishing, highly nutritious powerhouse, is the egg!

I love to eat eggs raw, and always have for as long as I can recall.
Duck eggs, Chook eggs... they're all good raw.

Asde from that, has anyone mentioned picked eggs yet?
Until this year, I'd never tried them. Not particularly common in
Australia. So I found a good recipe and made a large jar of pickled
eggs... and I liked them. I've since made a few more batches.

LOL, the g/f made exactly that for dinner last night
She used Italian sausages and Besan flour in the batter (we're both
sensitive to wheat) I'd never had it before and I really enjoyed it.

I like raw chicken and quail eggs, but not so sure about duck.

Check my Picasa albums. <g> There is a pickled egg series there.

I cheat. I purchase my favorite brand of pickles at the store, eat the
pickles and reserve the brine. Combine the brine with a little canned
beet juice and soak the hard boiled eggs in that for 1 week in the
refrigerator...

Eggs truly are so very versatile, the possibilities are nearly infinite,
I think? How about cheese grits souffle

But we never have any of those left over. The entire bowlful is consumed
ASAP (by me)! The leftover lasagna noodles from Monday were duly fried
up with a couple of eggs, leftover onion/garlic and leftover roasted red
sweet peppers.

Egg salad for lunch today. I mashed the hard boiled eggs with mayo,
salt, pepper, and dill.
