12 eggs! I gotta try this sometime. (Plus I hate the crust on a quiche so this sounds much better.)

For the ones that freeze them, do you scramble them and freeze the raw scramble or freeze them it cupcake tins or freeze the entire egg?

I mostly dehydrate but I wouldn’t mind starting to freeze some.

I have frozen the entire eggs. The shells will crack when frozen. They thaw out pretty quickly.

I make what I call French Toast Loaf. A dozen eggs or so. Add your favorite french toast ingredients. I like frozen blueberries, sugar, brown sugar, etc.
Mix in all leftover bread ends that nobody else in the house will eat, leftover buns, muffins, or whatever (break up like stuffing) equaling about 8 pieces of bread. Bake 350° for 50 minutes.
Stuff in thermos for work, pour syrup on top and enjoy. Doesnt waste bread or eggs and get more food with what you happen to have.

Sounds delicious!

We love egg salad when the weather is too hot for a hot meal.
besides mayo, I like to add lots of celery, parsley, dill, onion

Same here, plus I add a little bit of scrap cold cuts or precooked shrimp if I have any. I serve it open faced on some toast.

For everyone talking about quiche, if you swap out the milk for heavy cream, I promise you that it’ll come out SO much better. It helps the egg get a fluffier whip when you go to beat them. In my experience, using heavy cream separates an actual quiche from scrambled eggs on a pie crust

If you don’t have heavy cream, you can make some in a pinch by combining 3/4 cup of milk and 1/4 cup (half of a conventional US stick) of melted, unsalted butter. This works best with whole milk but will work somewhat well with 2%.
