healthy & easy ways to make eggs? (no oil!)

**blast00** · 06-05-2009, 08:08 AM

how do you guys make your eggs and eat them without frying them up in oil...

any ideas? I just want the nutrition of the eggs without the extra calories of the cooking oil, but I am sick of eating hard boiled... I like things that take longer to eat and warmer...

**bigjaenat** · 06-05-2009, 08:14 AM

Here's a thought... cook em in a pan with out oil! just spray the pan with pam.

**blast00** · 06-05-2009, 08:20 AM

pam is really not that good for you. its all fat and its serving size is 1/3rd a second... pam being healthy is a complete, complete myth.

**sloboda** · 06-05-2009, 08:22 AM

microwave them

**bigjaenat** · 06-05-2009, 08:23 AM

Haha where are you getting this information from?

**zhouaznbrass** · 06-05-2009, 08:25 AM

i use enough oil to barely coat my pan...its almost negligible

cook ur eggs how u like 'em. at 5'10'' and 155 (i know we're about the same weight) u can afford the extra oil

use a healthy oil????

fat is not inherently bad you know.

^ Poached eggs are good eats. They're a lot like sunny side up eggs but without the extra oil from frying them.

look on the PAM website or google it. every second you spray is around 10 calories of fat, how many seconds do you spray it for?

if used appropriately, with a serving size of 1/3rd a second, than its fine. but not many people do.

also--- how do you microwave it? specifically? recipe wise

**yoyoyolilembryo** · 06-05-2009, 08:47 AM

one easy way to make a good omelette is put all of your ingredients in a ziplock bag and boil it...makes a perfect one everytime.

Crack eggs right into the small Ziploc bag. Add the cheese and any option ingredients you like. Seal the bag, squish the ingredients to mix. "Burp" the air out.

Bring a medium-sized pan of water to a heavy boil.

Drop Ziploc baggie into the boiling water. Boil for 5 minunte.

Carefully, remove baggie from the water. Open the bag and roll the omelette onto a plate. YUM !

i just crack an egg into a bowl, grab a spoon and break up the yolk so that it's fairly evenly distributed, pop it in the microwave for ~45 seconds and it's good to go! i've found it doesn't taste much different and there is pretty much no cleanup compared to using a pan.

The fact that you're worrying about those little insignificant calories is laughable.

How does that make PAM unhealthy by the way?

O dear God! 10 CALORIES!!?!?!

come on man....

**machx** · 06-05-2009, 09:02 AM

hard boiled if you're looking for easy

and LOL @ worrying about Pam. I'm a conspiracy theorist and I even approve of Pam

spray it for 1/6th of a second if you are cutting

i do it for 2 mins or so. they dont blow up really - put them in a large enough container. if yu microwave too long they will get chewy and icky. still good, but not as good!

is the goal just speed and convenience or something else? I'm gonna try it tonight and if it doesn't go well you have to come clean my microwave lol jk

**drsmiles** · 06-05-2009, 09:32 AM

put a drip of olive oil in the pan and use a small paper towel to spread it around

**back-in-da-game** · 06-05-2009, 09:34 AM

Wow I had no idea that using pam like I do (maybe 3 or 4 seconds of spraying) to coat the pan was killing me. That 40 calories is HUGE. Even someone like me who cuts in extreme defeceits (more than the recommended 500 calories) is not scared of pam.

**Theenforcer1** · 06-05-2009, 05:54 PM

I have never met anyone scared of the trace calories in pam...hell even back when i was anorexic i wasnt scared of pam.

**Blindead** · 06-05-2009, 06:07 PM

Is this thread ****ing serious? Does no one else scramble eggs in the microwave?

Step 1. Put eggs in bowl
Step 2. Cook eggs, periodically stopping to poke them so they dont explode
Step 3. Eat eggs
