I love them

In no particular order of preference........

1) Over easy......enough to cook the white but leave the yolk almost raw. Soak it up with rye toast.

2) Pickled.........YES!!!!!!

3) Hard boiled with **** sauce.

4) Deviled

5) Egg salad!!!! eggs with onion, celery, mayo, etc.

6)Huevos Rancheros.......I make the rustic sauce from scratch and allow it to cook the top of the eggs......over tortillas with cheese and cilantro.

I do NOT like scrambled eggs though.........seems to be a travesty of eggy goodness to beat the things into the bland pablum.

Andy, you pretty much got Chief's hierarchy of egg preference down pat.

Love eggs, I can no longer eat them. Whenever I do I am doubled over sometimes for hours in pain.

Not sure why, I sure do miss them!

Benedicted (eggs Benedict)

Deviled

Over easy with toast

I agree with the scrambled part, they suck.

I dyed eggs with the kids for Easter.

I tripled the suggested amount of food coloring for extra vibrant hues.

Well.......the dye ended up coloring the eggs within the shell........so my egg salad was bright green, pink, blue, etc.

It looked terrible but was still damn good.

Also.......I forgot another EXCELLENT prep method..

1) Using a shot glass, cut out a circular hole in a piece of bread.

2) Fry the bread in hot butter for a minute or two, then crack an egg into the hole.

3) Fry for a bit then flip it and fry briefly.

So good you'll wanna slap your momma.

Srambled can be enjoyable with lots of Blackpeper, Melted Feta cheese and a hearty helping of Hot Salsa .

Scrambled eggs plain are pointless.

But chilaquiles? Fry some tortilla strips in hot oil so they're just starting to crisp and brown. Then dump the warm tortilla strips into some beaten eggs (with a dash of kosher salt).

Cook like scrambled eggs, toss in some grated cheese and a couple of chopped peppers. Cover in some warm green tomatillo sauce (green sauce for enchiladas) and some sour cream?

Okay. I guess we're pretty far away from scrambled eggs after all that... but it's pretty damn good.

I like them hard-boiled with salt and hot sauce ...

I like them scrambled and mixed with buttery cheese grits on a cold morning . . .
