Do you live alone? Are you a vegetarian? If you answered yes to both of those questions, I suggest you consider this omelet for dinner tonight.

Today is World Egg Day, and I'll be celebrating by eating eggs — one of my favorite foods ever — all day long. As I mentioned before, there are countless ways to eat them, but tonight I want to serve eggs as an appetizer in one of my beloved dishes: deviled eggs. The basic recipe is incredibly simple, yet there are so many ways to display a sophisticated take on them.

Happy Friday, and happy World Egg Day! This special occasion only comes around once a year, so I wanted to take the time to relish eggs and their multifaceted splendor. The incredible edible can be shirred, coddled, emulsified, or poached; used raw or cooked all the way through; eaten for breakfast or dinner; and presented in a salty or sweet manner.

On average, I eat about three hard boiled eggs per week. They're easy to transport and make a great snack or quick breakfast. I also enjoy throwing them into salads or sandwiches.

As a little girl, I used to love it when my mom declared that we were having "breakfast for dinner." This meal usually involved pancakes, bacon, and scrambled eggs. Nowadays when I enjoy breakfast for dinner, the menu is a little more sophisticated and always includes poached eggs.

How Do You Like Your Fried Eggs?
Sunny side up (cooked only on one side)
Over easy (cooked on both sides, with a runny yolk)
Over medium (cooked on both sides, with an almost-solidified center)
Over well (cooked completely through on both sides)
I don't like fried eggs.

One of my favorite seminars at this year's Classic was a cooking demo performed by French luminary Jacques Pépin along with his daughter, Claudine. On this sunny Saturday in Aspen, you'd never have guessed that Jacques, who's cooked for Charles de Gaulle and with Julia Child, turns 74 this year: the ebullient chef and his witty daughter exchanged lots of lively banter, and managed to make a whopping six tomato dishes in 45 minutes!
Although I can't wait to make the pair's appetizing tomato dishes, the most useful facts were his tips on boiling eggs, which they used in a harlequin tomato salad.

A friend of mine recently gave me some fresh eggs from her backyard chicken coop, complete with the hugest, yellowest yolks I've ever had the pleasure of eating. Since I love a sweet and savory breakfast sandwich, I got out the strawberry and meyer lemon marmalade that had done me so right before and combined it with crisped prosciutto and my favorite English muffins.
Though this is technically a breakfast sandwich, I had it for dinner.
