Egg Fast Recipe - Munavoi (Egg Butter)

If you've ever been on an Egg Fast before, you've probably had some version of this Finnish dish.  It's called Munavoi, and it's translated to "Egg Butter."  Traditionally, this is spread on toast, but since we can't have toast on an Egg Fast, we just eat it as-is.  If you've never had it, it might sound a bit odd, but believe me, it really IS delicious!  And best of all, it really can't get any easier!  To mix-up the flavor a little bit, try it with a sprinkling of seasoned salt or garlic salt.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs, hard-boiled
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• Salt, as desired (may omit if butter is salted)
• Pepper, as desired

Directions:

1. Mash hard-boiled egg and butter together with a fork.  If the mixture is staying too dry, microwave for 10-15 seconds to melt the butter, and mix that way.

2.  Add seasonings to taste.

Yields: 1 serving

Egg Fast Recipe - Fried Boiled Eggs with Yum Yum Sauce

Here's my latest Egg Fast recipe.  This recipe puts a new spin on regular hard-boiled eggs by frying them in some butter and topping with a tangy Yum Yum Sauce.  If you're not a fan of tangy flavors, feel free to replace the Yum Yum Sauce with regular mayo or just plain, melted butter.  This recipe is 100% Egg Fast-friendly.  But don't limit yourself to eating it only on an Egg Fast!  This can be enjoyed with any LCHF diet.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs, hard-boiled
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon Yum Yum Sauce (Recipe can be found HERE.)

Directions:

1. Melt butter in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Cut hard-boiled eggs into thick slices.
   
3. Fry in butter until lightly browned on both sides, flipping once.
   
4. Serve with Yum Yum Sauce in a small bowl for dipping.

Yields: 1 serving

Egg Fast Recipe - Cinnamon French Toast Puff

It's hard to come up with new ways to eat eggs when on an Egg Fast.  The only way I can survive is to disguise my eggs as other dishes.  This is one of those dishes.  I can't take full credit for this recipe, because the original version (which is not entirely Egg Fast friendly) comes from Jessie at Sugar Free Like Me.  I have been thinking about this recipe for quite a while now, trying to come up with a way to make it 100% Egg Fast friendly, and I've finally done it!  So, thank you for the awesome inspiration, Jessie!  :)


Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• 1/2 tablespoon Splenda
• 1/4 teaspoon maple flavor
• 1 egg
• 1 ounce cream cheese, softened
• 1 tablespoon Splenda
• 1/2 - 1 teaspoon maple flavor
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:
1.  Combine first three ingredients and whisk together.  Will be slightly grainy; set aside so the Splenda can dissolve into the butter.
2.  Puree last five ingredients in a blender until mixed and a little bit frothy.
3.  Pour batter into a buttered ramekin or microwaveable container (my ramekin looks so full because I actually have two servings in there).

4.  Microwave for about 2 minutes (or until done) on high power.

5.  Flip puff onto a plate.
6.  Whisk the syrup mixture together again before pouring over puff.  Alternately, you could mix this syrup up in a blender or with an immersion hand blender (see below) for a more "uniform" texture.

Yields: 1 serving

Egg Fast Recipe - Simple Fried Eggs

This is an Egg Fast staple!  If you're going to be eating eggs for 5+ days, you've got to have them fried as least once!  There's not much to this recipe, just your basic egg + fat.  I made mine purdy by using egg rings (or in this case, stars).  ;)






Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions:
1.  Heat butter in nonstick skillet over medium heat until melted.
2.  Crack eggs into egg rings (or just onto the skillet if you're not using egg rings).
3.  Cook over medium heat until underside starts to brown around edges.
4.  Remove egg rings and gently flip the eggs over.
5.  Cook until desired doneness (I only cook for about a minute or so because I like my yolk runny).

Yields: 1 serving

Egg Fast Recipe - Cottage Scramble

Scrambled eggs are another staple when Egg Fasting.  This is one way that I like to spruce up regular scrambled eggs in my hectic mornings.  It takes no extra time to prepare eggs this way over the "traditional" scrambled method.  It's probably one of the easiest egg fast recipes you can make (other than hard-boiled eggs, of course).  It certainly doesn't get any faster than this, either!

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons cottage cheese
• salt & pepper, to taste
  

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
2. Scramble the eggs and cottage cheese together.
3. Pour mixture into heated skillet and cook until done (about 3 minutes), stirring often.

Yields: 1 serving

Egg Fast Recipe - Pink Raspberry Crepes

Even though these crepes look like something you might serve your Sweetheart on Valentine's Day, I created them to eat anytime.  In fact, I had some just yesterday, and dare I say I did not share them with my Sweetheart!  *Gasps*  Maybe he'll get some for Sweetest Day.  This is not only a low-carb recipe, but it is also Egg Fast friendly.  Yay!

Crepes Ingredients:

• 2 eggs
• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons DaVinci sugar-free raspberry syrup
• 2 tablespoons butter, for frying

Glaze Ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons DaVinci sugar-free raspberry syrup
• 1/2 cup Splenda, Granulated
  
  

Directions:

1. Mix together glaze ingredients and refrigerate until needed.  Glaze will appear "frothy" at first, but after setting in the fridge, will become more translucent.
   
2. Mix eggs, cream cheese, and sugar-free syrup together in a blender until smooth.
   
3. Heat nonstick skillet over medium heat with 1/2 tablespoon butter.
4. Pour some crepe mixture onto heated skillet (creating a crepe about 6-inches diameter).
   
5. Heat about 2-3 minutes per side, or until done.
6. Cook remaining crepes in remaining butter, until all the batter has been used.  You should have 4 crepes total.
7. Roll crepes and drizzle with glaze just before serving.

Yields: 4 Crepes with Glaze
