Heat skillet and add butter so eggs don't stick.
Beat or whisk the eggs in a small bowl with cream and salt and pepper.
Cook in skillet, stirring occasionally, until almost set up. Remove from heat and serve.
Recipe Notes
If you stir scrambled eggs too much as they are cooking, they will end up crumbly and not be as creamy.
If you don't mind the extra fat and calories, double the cream for extra creamy eggs!
This is another recipe that my husband came up with. Creamy eggs filled with cooked bacon, onion, sweet peppers, jalapeno peppers, and topped with cheese. I usually cook up double the meat and veggies, then reserve half of it for a later time to make a quick weekday breakfast.
While that is cooking, finely dice onion, sweet pepper and jalapeno pepper.
When bacon is cooked, add the diced veggies and cook, without draining bacon grease.
Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.
When veggies are nearly cooked, add spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook until spinach is wilted.
Pour eggs over the top of the veggies and stir. Cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are nearly set up. Remove from heat. We like to eat these topped with shredded cheese and sometimes salsa.

I will never buy pizza sauce again after discovering this recipe! It is quick, easy and thick, and does not require any cooking before it goes on the pizza!
This is great because you don’t need to go out and buy all kinds of gluten-free flours, or any kind of flour! It almost has the consistency of a cheesecake and is delicious!
If you prefer, you can omit the almond extract and put in 2T. of pure vanilla extract instead.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line the inside bottom of a 9" Springform pan with a circle of parchment paper. Grease the sides of the pan. Set aside.
In a medium sauce pan, gently heat the cream over low heat. When the cream is fairly hot, melt the chocolate chips by adding them slowly to the pan as you whisk. Add the butter, in pieces. Whisk until the chocolate and butter are melted. Add the vanilla extract. As soon as the mixture is melted, smooth, and glossy, remove it from the heat.
Using a wire whisk attachment, beat the eggs, brown sugar and sea salt until the eggs are foamy and doubled in volume.
Slowly add the chocolate mixture to the eggs, and beat gently until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake in the center of a pre-heated oven for one hour, until the cake is set and cracked. It will appear a bit loose in the center, underneath. This is fine.
Place the cake pan on a wire rack to cool. When the cake is close to room temperature, lightly cover and chill the cake overnight. Before serving, gently loosen the cake from the sides of the pan using a thin flexible spatula. Release the Springform clasp and remove the ring. Place the cake on a cake plate. Dust with a sifting of powdered sugar.
Recipe Notes
This recipe originally came from glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com. I made a few changes, which are reflected here.
I had never heard of this before we went to a hayride a few years ago and someone brought some stuffed pepper soup for the potluck. I loved it! She didn’t have a recipe, so I had to come up with one for it. I like this even better than Stuffed Peppers, and it is super easy and fast!
In a Dutch oven, brown beef with onion and peppers. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook until rice is fully cooked.
This can also be made in a crock pot. Cook beef, onion, and peppers in a skillet first, then transfer to crock pot with all other ingredients. Cook about 4 hours on high, or until rice is cooked through.
Much better flavor than canned refried beans! These are made from dried pinto beans. Of course, you can add black beans in place of some or all of the pinto beans. I added these to my tacos (https://www.cherylsrecipes.net/recipe/tacos/) last night, and it was fantastic!
Place beans, water, onion, garlic, chicken base, cumin, salt, pepper, and cayenne in crock pot. Cook on high until beans are tender (8 hours or so).
Heat the lard in large skillet over medium-medium high heat.
Drain beans and add to skillet. Mash the beans coarsely with the back of a wooden spoon, adding more chicken broth if needed, to moisten.
Stir in the cilantro and lime juice.
Top with shredded cheese.
Since I have a soy allergy, I obviously cannot have soy sauce, which is in nearly every Chinese recipe out there! This is a great substitute for soy sauce, and it is reduced sodium! It will keep in the refrigerator for months.
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and boil gently, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, or until mixture is reduced to 2 cups. Store in the refrigerator. Stir before using.
This is for the die-hard cheese lovers! If it is too strong for your tastes, go with a mild or medium cheddar instead or substitute with your favorite cheese! We have sometimes added Swiss, Provolone, Pepper Jack and others to the recipe.
Of course, if you don’t have a wheat allergy or intolerance, you can use all-purpose flour and semolina macaroni in the same proportions as the recipe.
Fill a medium sized saucepan with water for cooking macaroni. Turn on heat to high. When it boils, add macaroni and cook according to package directions. Do NOT overcook the macaroni!
Meanwhile, begin cubing the cheese. Melt butter in a skillet. Add flour and stir to make a roux. Add 1 1/4 cups milk and stir, cooking on medium heat, to thicken. Add cheese cubes. Stir until melted and sauce is smooth. You can add a little extra milk if you think it is necessary. Combine the cheese and cooked macaroni. It may seem a little thin at first, but if you let it sit for 5 minutes, the macaroni will absorb a lot of the liquid and it will be a nice consistency.
Recipe Notes
Although spelt is actually a type of wheat flour, most people with wheat allergies can digest spelt with no problem. Obviously, you should not eat spelt if it is a problem for you.
Saute onion and ham with butter.
In a bowl, slightly beat the eggs. Season with salt & pepper.
Add ham mixture, hash browns and cheeses.
Bake in 9x13" pan at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes, or until eggs are set.
Let stand 10-15 minutes, then cut and serve.
This is a good way to use up your leftover taco meat. This is the recipe I use. Make sure that if you want gluten-free or soy-free to check the labels carefully before buying any taco seasoning in the store.
Heat small skillet and add 1/2 T. butter. While that is heating, beat 2 eggs with heavy cream and salt & pepper. When pan is heated, add egg mixture. When omelette edges start to set up, lift edge with spatula while tipping pan so raw egg goes underneath. Continue going around the pan, lifting and tipping, until eggs are cooked through. Sprinkle some shredded cheese and taco meat on one side of cooked eggs. Fold edge without toppings over and carefully slide out of skillet onto serving dish. Garnish as desired.
