When staying in a hotel there’s usually no stove but sometimes a microwave or coffee maker. Hard cooked eggs are a great way to avoid a high-carb diet when traveling. The coffee maker method works best but a microwave can be used to heat water for a similar indirect process. Just don’t put uncracked eggs into a microwave to boil directly as they explode.

I very rarely buy a single-purpose gadget, but I use this puppy nearly everyday:

Hasn’t exploded an egg yet, and made in the US to boot! I know eggs are easy to cook on the stove, but this requires no watching to make perfect hard-boiled eggs- a necessary requirement with toddlers in the house.

Excellent point, I don’t travel all that much anymore.

If there is a microwave, try a little Pam spray on a bowl, add about a table spoon of water, or milk per egg, scramble, and nuke for .5 - 3 mins. Fluffy scrambled eggs from a microwave! (a little cheese, some ham and some toast, who needs a Mcanything?) the amount of water or milk does not have to be exact.
