CHAPTER 1
EGG MUGS AND EGG BAKES
EGG MUGS
EGG BAKES
Eggs are underrated as far as we're concerned.
This section will prove this quite clearly. Enjoy ...
MUG IT UP!
* When choosing a mug, the bigger, the better. The egg mixture will puff and rise as it cooks. Your best bet is a tall, wide mug with a 16-ounce capacity. Don't own any oversized mugs? Use a microwave-safe BOWL. We won't tell ...
* Some microwaves are more powerful than others. You may need to adjust cook times for your specific appliance.
* After you're finished eating, SOAK YOUR MUG in warm, soapy water. That egg sticks! (Consider yourself warned.)
ABOUT YOUR EGG BAKE ...
* Cool it! Literally. Let your oven-baked dish cool for 5 to 10 minutes before digging in. The omelette will pull away from the edges a bit, making it easier to cut and serve.
* Your egg bake may deflate a little once it has cooled. Worry not; it'll still be huge.
* Use a big spatula to remove a serving ... It's the right utensil for the job!
A QUICK GUIDE TO SYMBOLS:
15 Minutes or Less
This symbol lets you know a recipe should take you no more than fifteen minutes from start to finish! That includes prep and cook time.
30 Minutes or Less
Just like the 15-minute version, this one points out recipes that take 30 minutes or less to whip up.
Meatless
You guessed it — no meat here! That includes beef, poultry, and fish. Some recipes give the option of a meatless ingredient. If you want your meal without meat, go with the meatless choice.
Single Serving
Pretty straightforward. These are recipes for one.
5 Ingredients or Less
Fans of HG know that we like to keep things simple. And these recipes contain just five ingredients or less!
Photos
These recipes can be seen in one of the book's photo inserts The number in the symbol tells you which insert. Find photos of all the recipes at hungry-girl.com/books!
