Eggs, salsa or picante sauce, tortilla chips, Mexican blend or other preferred cheese, butter or oil, tortillas if you’re feeling sassy.
Heat your cooking surface to medium high, slap on the butter or oil, smash them eggs in and get to scrambling. When the eggs first start to congeal, crush some tortilla chips and toss them in like confetti. Scramble until nearly done and then smother that shit in salsa. Scramble briefly some more and then cut off the heat. Add the cheese as you please and cover just long enough for the cheese to melt—I usually just put the plate I’m gonna use over the pan.
From start to cleanup, if this recipe takes you longer than 10-15 minutes, you’re getting too fancy.
Yeah, I had a bunch of eggs that got cracked from a dropped carton or something. Made a couple of quiches and froze one. Still great when reheated later on.
Separate the whites and yolks. Make a sponge cake or something out of the whites.
In a tupperware container, put down a thick layer of salt. Then place the yolks close but not touching on that layer of salt. Cover everything with salt. Leave it out at room temperature covered but with the ability to breathe. The yolks will harden and dehydrate. You can now use them as a Parmesan substitute in salads, pastas and other things.
If you want to step things up a little bit make sense and cray powder or chili powder (American Curry powder) with the salt to impart some flavor to the yolks.

There’s nothing wrong with a hard egg sandwich. Little bit of mayo. A little bit of mustard. Maybe a tiny bit of horseradish and some dill. Put that on two slices of bread.

You can make ice cream. Egg sugar, salt, cream.

If you don’t anticipate running into another surplus then you can get some food grade lime and waterglass the eggs for long-term storage as long as they are not washed. If you bought them from a store In America then do not do this. Only do this with farm fresh unwashed eggs.
I run a hard surplus on eggs so I do not do this because I know there will always be more so I’m not looking for ways to save them but ways to you use them.

Do you have any urine and wood ash? Maybe it’s time to bury some eggs in the backyard.
shakashuka is pretty tasty. My main use for eggs is ice cream tho. You have a good ice cream machine? Check out David Lebovitz’s Perfect Scoop for some damn fine recipes.
Not really a recipe, but this is what I’d usually do:
I’ll just hard-boil a bunch at once and keep them in the fridge. They should keep for a while after that as long as they’re refrigerated. I’ll add one or two to every lunch, which is usually some sort of ramen or noodles, so it goes well and adds protein.
I’ve had luck with this strata recipe when I buy the priced to go eggs. I use six slices of torn up toast in place of the baguette, and it makes four big servings.
