I just saw the above replied and PMed the poster but here is my response in case anyone's interested in good things to do with eggs.
I personally like poached eggs the best. Do you hard- or soft- boil? Those are both good methods too and hardboiled eggs are pretty kid-friendly. (esp if you have a kid who is weird about textures.) I love making omelets or even a scramble with cheese (I've been using sharp cheddar) and fresh tomatoes. (grape tomatoes are nice and sweet for this if you cut them into about 3-4 slices apiece) Some salt and lots of pepper after it's cooked makes it really tasty!
Some other good things for omelets/scrambles are ham, turkey, brie, apple pieces (Galas are great), bell peppers, Swiss cheese.....pretty much anything that can be cut into little bits. An old favorite of mine is turkey, brie, and apple. Try different cheeses and vegetables. The quiche you mentioned sounds really good! Also you can fry or poach an egg and serve it atop a piece of toast with sauteed tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, peppers.......any other veggies that would be good in a sautee.
How do you scramble your eggs? I prefer to cook them with water instead of milk. I use 3 tablespoons of water per egg, though these days I just eyeball it. They're also good to scramble with no water or milk as long as you keep an eye on them so they don't burn. Hope that helps! Eggs are such a great food!
