I love eggs and I am proud of it!\u00a0 Eggs are economical, can be cooked in so many different ways and they offer great nutritional value.\u00a0 And yes I eat the whole thing because an egg is a whole food and I like whole foods.\u00a0 The 2 components of the egg each offer a unique nutrient profile.<\/p>\n

Eggs are a great source of protein.\u00a0 1 large egg contains approximately 6 grams of protein and it is in the egg white that most of it is found.<\/p>\n

The egg yolk has about half of the protein of the egg white but offers a heavy nutrient hit.\u00a0 The yolk of an egg provides vitamins A, D, E and K, the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin and the valuable nutrient choline.<\/p>\n

The most common question I get around meal planning is “Can you give me some snack ideas?”.\u00a0 Well yes I can.\u00a0 Have a hard boiled egg!\u00a0 You can make a few at a time, keep them in the fridge and grab one when you need it.\u00a0 Perfect for convenience and time management.\u00a0 Do you see why I love eggs!<\/p>\n

Cooking the Perfect Hard Boiled Egg<\/strong><\/h4>\n

I have tried various techniques for cooking hard boiled eggs but find this one to be the best:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Put your eggs in to a pot and cover with cold water<\/li>\n
  2. Turn the heat to high<\/li>\n
  3. When the water comes to a good rolling boil turn off heat and cover the pot with a lid<\/li>\n
  4. Set your timer for 20 minutes<\/li>\n
  5. When your timer goes off drain the water and then cover the eggs with cold water.\u00a0 This last step helps the shell to come off easier<\/li>\n
  6. Once your eggs are cooled, drain the water and your eggs are ready to eat or to be stored in the fridge<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So that’s it in an egg shell:)<\/p>\n

    This technique has never failed me.\u00a0 Give it a shot and if you feel like letting my know how it goes I would love the feedback.<\/p>\n
