Other ideas to try
To test if your pan is hot enough, sprinkle a drop of water on pan—it should sizzle and evaporate immediately.
Loosen and lift cooked eggs from edge of pan to allow uncooked egg to run onto the hot surface to cook.
Add fresh herbs and soft, creamy fillings like goat cheese at end of cooking time so they just wilt or melt.
Go Mexican with fat-free salsa, peppers, low-fat cheddar. Go Greek with spinach, onions, feta. Go Italian with part-skim mozzarella, basil, tomato.
