Right well they're pure genius in my eyes lol...
This makes 4 'muffins' and I use one of those rubber muffin trays - if you have a home bargains then they're something like £1.99 in there.
Ingedients:
3 eggs
2 slices of bacon (although I've started experimenting and using ham or chorizo etc)
couple of mushrooms sliced up
pinch of cheese
method:
mix the eggs together and pour in the muffin tray, add the meat, mushrooms/peppersand give a poke with a fork to make sure its all covered in egg and then sprinkle a little bit of cheese on top.
I use hardly any cheese just enough to brown and give a cheesy taste and pop in the oven (gas mark 7ish) for about 25 minutes.
When you remove them from the muffin tray place on a cooling rack so they don't get soggy.
They're perfect you can put any fillings you want....sometimes i want mushrooms other times peppers - i love them!!

You guys I've been drooling at this thread, those recipes look fantastic! Egg muffins look great.
I remember doing atkins ages ago, I used to LOVE breakfast - scrambled eggs, sausages and cheese grated on. drool drool drool.
I think if I ever need to lose about a stone in the future, I'll do low carbing like this.. For 4 stone however I will stick with LL!

Basically all I did was to get 3 eggs, some prawn, some garlic powder and some paprika. Shoved it all in the frying pan (no oil) just a sliver of butter, and let it cook. Once it looked like an omellette I just sliced it up. I had it with a handful of salad and it tasted just like a chinese takeaway

Up until a few years ago I always bought mayo from the shop, normally hellmans. Then I remember one day I was making coleslaw for a BBQ and had no mayonaise left. I'd heard all the horror stories about making your own, but I thought I would give it a try! I got my recipe from one of Gordon ramsey's cookbooks. But here is the youtube link : YouTube - Gordon Ramsay - Homemade Mayonnaise
Its so much nice than ordinary shop bought mayo, it goes off a lot quicker, but you can make as little as you want. Also you can add your own flavourings, garlic, chilli, herbs etc. I used sunflower oil (not sure of the carb content). It really is easier than I thought, cheaper and not full of additives
