Rating: 3 stars

Save for all the embarrassing and borderline-dangerous microwave accidents, the microwave is one of the greatest inventions of all time – and every college student who’s lived in a dorm and hates the cafeteria food will agree. This microwave scrambled egg is a clear testament to its greatness. Beaten eggs, placed in a microwave safe bowl, ramekin, or mug can turn into a classic home breakfast staple in 90 seconds. With a few condiments of your own choosing, you’ll have a meal that’s protein-rich, generally healthy, and will fill you up ‘til lunchtime. Downside – it can get old too soon. Expert tip: Around the 1-minute mark on the microwave, take out your eggs and stir it around a bit to get evenly cooked scrambled eggs.
