Here are all the options with the number of eggs used.
Omelette

Versatile as you wish: plain, cheese, leftover vegetables, meat, tofu, apples, etc. Add hot sauce, spices or even salsa for a more spicy dish.
- Need: 8 eggs for 4 servings
Frittata

An Italian “omelette” cooked both in the pan and in the oven. We use cooked vegetables or pieces of meat. And of course, cheese! You can also add leftover pasta from the day before. Yes, a spaghetti frittata!
- Need: 4 or 5 eggs for 4 meals
Sandwich filling

By preparing a “reserve” of sandwich filling, you have multiple possibilities. A sandwich with slices of bread, an English muffin, a bagel, a tortilla or even rusks. Also, you can season the mixture with a little relish, shallots, cucumbers, etc.
- Need: 6 eggs for 4 meals
Deviled eggs

No need to wait for Christmas to make stuffed eggs! They are delicious anytime. And you can vary the taste by mixing them with various sauces (mustard, relish, mayo, etc.) and spices… even BBQ!
Quiche

Once again, there are many variations. You only need a tart base (shortcrust pastry) and then mix the eggs with the filling you like (bacon, asparagus, ham, mushrooms, peppers, etc.).
- Need: 6 eggs for 4 to 6 servings
Caramel cream
Yum! A dessert that is both fresh and sweet! The preparation takes a long time, but the price is very small!
- Need: 2 eggs for 4 servings
Mirror, turned, scrambled!
Don’t want to complicate your life? We take out a frying pan and presto!
- Need: variable… depending on appetite!
