Two eggs

Toast and bacon or sausage to accompany the eggs

Directions:
Crack the eggs into a bowl. This way you can inspect for broken shells and yolks. Nobody wants to eat the broken yolks, unless you plan to scramble them for the oldest granddaughter.

Put a pan over medium low to medium heat. Add a bit of butter, margarine, or cooking spray.

Gently pour the eggs side by side into the pan. In about a minute, the outer edges will turn opaque. This is your cue to cover the pan and lower the heat. Add a splash of water to steam the eggs. A pot lid works well to trap the steam and gently cooks the top of the egg without having to flip them.

In three minutes and you'll have perfect eggs — no sticking or breaking. The longer you cook the eggs, the harder the yolk will be. If you want a medium yolk, cook for 5 minutes. A hard yolk will set in 6.

Because your youngest granddaughter loves the yolk, cut the yolks out and let her eat them with toast and bacon. Slip her your bacon too, why not, it makes her giggle. Then, enjoy your steamed egg whites with toast and a smile.
