Mushrooms, Part Two

Remember how I got my mushrooms drunk last night? Well, tonight I made them breakfast.


Mushroomelette

Ingredients
Eggs (I used 3)
Mushrooms (I used 3 button mushrooms)
Butter (about 1 Tbsp)
Cheese, shredded (I used Jack)
Seasonings (I used shallot-pepper)*

Equipment
Stove, pan, cheese grater

Instructions
Dice your mushrooms. (Just like last night, they don't have to be perfect, just evenly-sized.) Put your butter in a pan over medium heat. Once it's melted, add the mushrooms and stir them around to get them all buttery. Leave them alone for the most part (stir around occasionally) and go grate your cheese if you haven't already, and beat your eggs in a bowl. Once the mushrooms are tender, add the eggs and stir around until they look approximately like this:


Add the cheese and keep stirring around until the cheese is melted and the eggs are done.

*You can season at several different points: while the mushrooms are sauteeing, while the eggs aren't yet done, after you add the cheese, all three... whatever.

Yields
This was enough for two, because I used three eggs. This one, like last night's, is easily scalable.

Total time
Darn my lack of accountability on this front. I would guess about 15 minutes again, because I baked biscuits at the same time and they took a little over 15 minutes.

Cleanup rating 2/5
Eggs are pretty easy to clean up because they don't really stick to the pan. There are still a handful of dishes that need to be cleaned up, though (cutting board, knife, pan, bowl from the eggs, spoon).

Difficulty rating 3/10
You do have to pay attention when making this, but it's not terribly hard.

Flavor rating 5/10
Pretty good. Not great. I could have used more seasoning probably, but generally pretty good.
