Bought this to experiment with microwaving egg scrambles in the morning. I don't like using plastic stuff in the microwave, especially in day-to-day usage. Trying to come up with glass, all-in- one "vessel" breakfast without the frying pan. Keep some diced peppers, tomatoes, onions, ham, shredded cheese, etc., on hand, and it's easy to throw them and a couple of scrambled raw eggs into this bowl. You can do them all together at once, or do the diced stuff first for thirty seconds, then add the eggs. Experiment with the total time (not long), salt & pepper to taste, make some toast, and you'll be rewarded with a tasty, quick, easy to heat, serve, eat and clean-up breakfast. It works great.
