Breakfast for Hunny

With some recent events, I've been worried that Hunny goes 24 hours between meals.  He just simply does not have time to eat at work.  When he gets paid on Friday (TWO DAYS!!!!) I'm going to get him some snack mix at Walmart -- hey... anyone got a suggestion on making it cheaper?  Anyway, I try to make him a protein breakfast when I can (he's often up and gone before dawn, so...)

This morning I made him shirred eggs.  Don't get excited... it's all done in the microwave.

First, I have to say that I LOVE my little oval stoneware bakers from Pampered Chef.  My pusher -- er, I mean "Pampered Chef Consultant" -- Angie is a super-star and feeds my stoneware addiction very well.  I just hate that they retired the small oval dish.  This is one of the very best items in the whole stoneware collection.  I was able to get six of them back when we had money.  I use them for a million different things, including shirred eggs.

SHIRRED EGGS

1 T margarine

4 Brown n Serve LINK Frozen Sausages

3-4 med eggs

First, melt the margarine in the dish in the microwave.  Arrange sausages across the MIDDLE of the dish.  Gently break eggs on either side of the sausages.  

Gently place in microwave (so the sausages don't roll to the edge).  Cook in the microwave 3 minutes on 50% power and then 45 seconds on high.  Add two forks and have breakfast with your hunny.

Cooking it like this, the eggs are a perfect medium egg, closer to poached than fried.

Here's the breakdown, got everything at Save-a-Lot:

• 4 Sausages, box of 8 for $1, so -- 50¢
• 3 eggs, 30/2.69 -- 27¢

That's breakfast for two for a total of about 80¢
