Scrambled Eggs

As I said before, I am a fan of eggs!  This is a simple recipe that takes patience and time, but is effortless to make.  It's one of my favorites and I hope it turns into one of yours, too!

2 eggs
1/4 - 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
salt and pepper
butter

Combine eggs, cheese, and salt and pepper until the yoke is incorporated.  In a small sauce pan, over high heat, melt butter until frothy with bubbles.  Add egg mixture, which will start to set up in a few moments.  Lower to heat to low.  Use a wooden spoon and stir the eggs.  After some time, it will begin to set up.  There will be a sheen that will eventually decrease.  The mixture will begin to set, with less sheen, but make sure it doesn't lose its sheen completely.  The mixture should still be a little moist when done, so the eggs don't get overcooked.  The cooking time should be about 5-7 minutes.  Slide onto the plate into a neat pile, and if desired, serve with buttered toast (low carb for me!), your choice of bacon or sausage, and a sliced orange.  This will add a lot of color and make a hearty breakfast to start your day.
