You're very welcome. I enjoy raising chickens and wish to share that with others.

Ok,Everyone I got one egg this morning and im thinking of eating...any ideas on what i should make with it?What do you guys make with eggs?

I usually fry mine for breakfast. Over easy, with toast to dip in the yolk. That's how I usually do it. Today I cooked the yolk through and had a fried egg sandwich. Srambled is good - especially if you add things like tomato, sausage, spinach and cheese. Or omelettes. I like omelettes, too. You might need more than one egg for that, though.

wow! you gave me some pretty good decisions...hard decision to make..I think i might do the scrabbled eggs and add tomatoes and peppers to it,with some toast and butter..Thx for the suggestion..

I don't have chickens (I'm here because I live my fantasy through everyone else's chickens!), but I can sure help with cooking! And it's great to start learning how to cook at your age so you don't eat like crud when you go off to college...speaking from experience...

Scramble it! Scramble it plain or with other stuff. I like to scramble in cottage cheese halfway through cooking. If any of you are suspiciously squinting at me right now, don't knock it until you try it!

Fry them up, especially "egg hole" fried eggs, and would work well with a single egg.

Learn how to hard boil eggs if you haven't done it before since you can make many things with them from there. From deviled eggs, to egg salad for sandwiches, perhaps a Cobb pasta salad or just a regular Cobb salad, slice them up and layer in a sandwich, or just sprinkle them with a little salt (and/or pepper, paprika, etc) and eat them straight.

Frittatas! Oh, man. Nothing beats a great frittata, except maybe a souffle. I like mushroom and asparagus frittatas, but you can pretty much throw anything in there and it'll likely taste amazing.

Souffle... Some recipes are easier while other recipes needs puff pastry or a tube of crescent roll dough on hand, so this is probably something to think about for next time.

And this next one is more complicated and requires some specialty ingredients a lot of folks don't have access to, but the premise is easily adaptable. Oyakodon, a delicious Japanese tradition, basically sees onions cooked in a broth seasoned with soy sauce, then thinly sliced chicken is added in and cooked as well. After the chicken is cooked, beaten eggs are added in and cooked just a smidge. The whole thing is then poured over rice. It's amazing. I eat it at least once a week

So you know how it is at the end of the week,we didnt have any tomatoes or peppers.I was going to eat scrabbled eggs and eat it with just ketchup like i normally do...but we dont have ketchup either...(my dad always put ketchup on our scrambled eggs when me and my sister were little bc he liked ketchup on his...it is actually pretty good if you haven't tried it)were going to the store tomorrow, so I ended up making a boiled egg with salt and pepper and some butter bread bc i couldn't find the toaster .Thank you both for so many interesting suggestions...I will defiantly be trying them out once we get more groceries and my chickens lay more eggs

Oh....And it tasted really good...I was worried for nothing

My very first egg ended up in egg wash for pork cutlets, so while it got used, we couldn't actually TASTE it. Had to wait until we got multiple eggs before I could consider something like deviled eggs or egg salad.

My usual egg preparation is 1 egg soft poached in a bowl of soup noodles. No better way to enjoy a yolk!
