Cooking notes
When making these it can be hard to get the right amount even with measuring as things are not always going to have the same gap so we normally start with 7 eggs and if we need more then you can quickly make some more egg mixture to fill in the rest normally thing turn out right
If you put in too much mixture then you may just want to make some scrambled eggs as you dont it to overflow in the oven as long as you are just below the top then you should be good then.

Heating the microwave is the easy way but you will have to do it in small amounts about 10 seconds at a time. I have also been told that defrost and half-power work well too.
If you heat in the oven then heat up to 350 and leave for about 10 minutes.
