INGREDIENTS: 1/2 pound sliced bacon 2 tablespoons butter 8 eggs 1/3 cup heavy cream 3/4 teaspoon salt
PREPARATION: Cook bacon to desired doneness and transfer to paper towels to drain. Keep warm. Pour off bacon grease and melt butter in the same skillet. Beat eggs lightly and whisk in cream, salt, and pepper. Pour into hot skillet and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened but still moist, about 6 to 9 minutes. Transfer to hot platter and garnish with bacon strips. Serves 4. </quoting>
Why not use the bacon grease too?
Phred, But, but, but... no avocados??? 😉
Can't say I've tried avocado in scrambled eggs. (But isn't there some sort of liqueur with a name rather like that? Might be a goer. :-)
Local avocados are going to be in rather short supply here in NQ, courtesy of the recent passing of TC Larry across our main growing areas. For a few weeks probably won't be too bad -- I'm told farmers have been able to gather some of the wind fall in fair condition. However, where the trees themselves have suffered badly, production is likely to be well down for some time.
Ill winds and all that -- leaves more opportunity for growers elsewhere. (Including those in bloody Kiwiland, Kathy. :-)

I have never added mayo to scrambled eggs but it sounds interesting... kinda'. I use mayo on egg sandwiches and I'll make an occasional egg and english muffin thing using mayo, lettuce, tomato (when in season) and bacon.
Have you ever coated your bacon slices in flour and then fried? Nice touch
Nope. That's another one to add to my "to try" list. Thanks.

I was recently looking at posts in another group and came across a food blog in which the writer described and photographed making the best scrambled eggs ever - with mayo. I had never heard of such a thing, and I been reading this group for over a year, and I`ve seen more then a couple scrambled eggs threads and I can`t ever recall anyone ever putting mayo in scrambled eggs! Does anyone here do this?

Only if I'm putting them into a sandwich...
IMHO most Mayo will overwhelm the rather delicate flavor of good eggs.
Just my opinion of course! :-) -- Peace! Om
