My brother David called me and said he couldn't find his recipe for Scrambled Eggs with Tomato & Cheese in the Microwave. To be honest, I had never heard of it but, with one eyebrow raised, I managed to find the recipe he likes. It's from Martha Stewart. Who knew she would ever stoop to so low to use a microwave! Here is the beauty of this, you make it, cook it and eat it all in the same little bowl or cup. I think this would be a great way for all the frazzled parents to make breakfast for their kids in the morning before online school. I realize you might have to replace the tomatoes for some cooked bacon or sausage! 

  • Prep: 5 mins
  • Cook: 5 mins
  • Yields: 1 Serving

Ingredients

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons milk

⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper

¼ teaspoon salt

1 scallion, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons cheddar cheese, shredded

1 grape or cherry tomato, quartered lengthwise

Directions

1In a large (10-ounce) microwave-safe custard cup or ramekin, combine eggs, milk, cayenne pepper, and salt. Stir in scallion.



2Microwave (uncovered) on high for 1 minute; stir with a fork. Continue cooking until eggs are almost set, about 1 minute more. Remove from microwave.



3With a clean fork, stir in shredded cheddar cheese; cover with a paper (or clean kitchen) towel. Let stand until cheese has melted and eggs are set, about 1 minute. Top with grape or cherry tomato, and serve immediately.
