How to Cook Scrambled Eggs Using a Slow Cooker

A slow cooker is designed to cook foods at a low temperature for long periods of time so you can create a meal while doing other things. Use your slow cooker to cook scrambled eggs for Sunday brunch while you enjoy your company, rather than slaving over the stove. By adding other ingredients, you can create your own style of scrambled eggs. If you would like a healthier version of an egg dish, use an egg substitute or make the scrambled eggs with egg whites.
