Just eggs.
Sunny side up; low heat so that you don't get that weird gloopy snot kind of white part, but you can still get a runny yolk. I'll always go for a runny yolk.
Scrambled; whisk them with milk and throw some butter in there when you put them in the pan. Quick and easy. High heat, keep them moving, fold them, mix them, all of that. Scrambled eggs are dry. That's rule number one.
Poached; strain those things. Get that watery white part away so it doesn't mess up the water. Boil the water and stir it quickly to make a tiny whirlpool. Ploop that egg in there. Scoop it out after a few minutes to keep that yolk runny and you're good.
Baked; don't bake your eggs unless they're part of a delicious cake.
Omelet; it's pretty much the same as scrambled but with lower heat. Put anything in there. Mushrooms. Peppers. Cheese. Whatever strikes your fancy.
Hard boiled; Boil some water. Put your eggs in for however long you want. If you're cooking them through, I can't imagine it matters too much. My wifey cracks them a little to speed up the process, but that's about as technical as we get.
Soft boiled; I don't do this much. I can't time it that well. It's the same as hard boiled, but just take them out of the water quicker.
That's about all the ways I'll eat eggs. There are probably more, but I'm happy with this right now.
