This sounds fantastic. I'm usually in such a hurry in the mornings, and this sounds like an awesome short cut.

I think some people missed the point of this recipe. It does not say it is for 'on the go' so of course you would not eat it while driving. I suppose you could microwave it in a bowl, if that's what you prefer. It is hailed as being quick to prepare with easy clean up.

My son loves this. He is single and has limited kitchen access except for microwave and always looking for quick fix ideas. My Mom taught him how to scramble an egg in microwave. And this just made it better. Thank you for another happy family recipe : )

I tried this today and I like it. Not only was it very good, it was plenty to eat for breakfast. I was not on the go but busy none the less, so I ate as I cleaned my kitchen. Thank you

You still would need to use a fork or spoon. Do you plan to eat it while driving to work?? I think the idea is ridiculous.

Why would you want to eat it in a mug and not a bowl?
