Directions
Beat together eggs, milk and seasonings in a microwaveable mug. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, turning it back slightly to vent.

Tips
After beating eggs, add any of the following: chopped green onion or chopped green, red or yellow peppers, or chopped cooked vegetables or meats.
For breakfast on the go, cut a whole wheat pita bread in half and spoon egg mixture into both pockets.
Gluten Free
If using pre-packaged shredded cheddar cheese choose one that is gluten-free. If using Italian seasoning, check ingredients to make sure it is gluten-free. For variations, if adding meat, choose a gluten-free ham, sausage or deli meat, as processed meat products may contain fillers or seasonings made from wheat. And for breakfast on the go, substitute gluten-free bagel or toast to make a gluten-free breakfast sandwich.
