BUFFET-STYLE FLUFFY OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD
This is the method that restaurants use to serve eggs for a buffet brunch --- for cheesy eggs mix in 1-1/2 cups shredded old cheddar cheese or you may sprinkle the cheese on top after removing from the oven --- 2-1/2 cups half and half cream and milk will produce ultra fluffy eggs, for a firmer texture reduce to 2 cups--- NOTE this recipe was tested using large eggs I cannot promise the same results using small or extra large eggs --- if you are serving these eggs at a buffet some side ideas would be salsa, green onions, cheddar cheese and soft buns :)

- Gradually whisk in the half and half and milk; pour into the baking pan.
- Bake uncovered for 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
- TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
- Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
- Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
- Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.

Steps:
- 1. To make your life easier, and get a really good whisked egg product use your blender to aerate the eggs. My blender would only hold about 8 eggs at a time. Pour into a large bowl after blending.
- 2. In the last egg mixture in the blender add the seasonings and cream or evaporated milk and blend well; add seasonings.
- 3. Melt 1 stick of butter in a large DEEP skillet over a medium high temperature.
- 4. Cut the cream cheese into 1" size cubes. Set aside.
- 5. After butter is melted add the egg mixture to the pan: Stir the eggs occasionally with a spatula to be sure to prevent over browning on the bottom of the skillet. When the eggs come into curds, gently fold in the cream cheese. Continue to gently stir until eggs appear slightly moist and the cream cheese is well incorporated.
- 6. Place the eggs in a crock pot set on "keep warm". The eggs will keep well for several hours.
- 7. Vary your seasonings to your taste. For presentation garnish with green onions and possibly shredded cheese of your choice. I have made 1-1/2 of the recipe for a larger crowd but it was good I have a very deep skillet. For larger crowds make the recipe twice and it will still fit in most crock pots.
