I always forget about using eggs as the main protein in dinner, so I'd love a few ideas on how to use them. My husband won't accept breakfast for dinner, so I need some creative ideas beyond pasta carbonara and quiche.
Go!

What about an egg foo young type dish? I like it without all the salty gravy on top
I also like poached eggs on top of salads and asparagus. Or scrambled into soups (like egg drop soup style), fried rice,

This is a popular Korean side at BBQ places.

This sliced egg is another fave.
Also, you can steam the egg above in any type of bowl.

Oh wow, thanks everyone for the ideas! I think I can work some of these in.

Egg salad sandwiches?
I also love a fried/poached egg on asparagus, or try adding it to a BLT. -
I love just an Egg wrap. Scrambled egg and some salsa on a tortilla!

We make this frittata every so often. We usually add spinach to it, and it's yummy.

I like adding eggs to salads, egg drop soup, or adding an egg on a turkey burger.

I would try making Deviled Egg Pasta Salad (recipe below), pasta with asparagus and a poached egg, or one of my favorites is roasted veggies and couscous with a fried egg on top of the couscous.

I hate eggs except just whites scrambled, haha. But I have seen some fun looking pizzas with an egg cracked on them at the last minute- so if you ever make your own (oo on a grill even!) that might be good? Also what about over a salad- I think those are generally poached? Or hard boiled and chopped and added.
-
We make omelets for dinner sometimes; we try to dress them up a little so they go with a big salad and make it more dinner-like and less breakfast-like.
Some of our favorite combinations are: pesto/shrimp/goat cheese, caramelized onions and goat cheese, fontina cheese and spinach, lobster.

Frittatas definitely (you can put anything in them, I like potatoes to make them more filling!). I also really like zucchini or summer squash fritters.
