Egg Dishes for Every Meal
One thing you’ll always find in my fridge: Eggs. And trust me, there’s more than a dozen reasons to love them. For one, they’re super versatile—you can enjoy them any time of day in any kind of way. Second, eggs are filled with nutrition. They’re a high-quality protein source that comes packaged with choline, a nutrient that’s important for brain health. They contain B vitamins that play a key role in energy production. And the yolk boasts lutein and zeaxanthin that helps support healthy eyesight. Finally, they’re convenient and can last for weeks in the fridge. Enuf said 😉
If you’re looking for some inspiration, check out the following recipes so you can enjoy eggs-traordinary meals morning, noon and night!
NOTE: The American Heart Association recommends up to 7 eggs per week for healthy individuals. If you have heart disease or are at an increased risk, talk to your doctor before incorporating eggs into your diet.

Egg salad meets cacio e pepe pasta in this remade classic lunch order. It’s creamy and delicious thanks to the Parm, pepper and colorful bell pepper.

Egg Dishes for Every Meal: B.L.E.A.T. Quesadilla
The simple addition of two letters (and ingredients) to the lunchtime sammie everyone loves—the BLT—ramps up the nutrition and fun factor. The “E” for eggs, adds satiating protein, and the “A” for avocado, delivers healthy fat and creaminess. To make it extra special, I brown an egg-dipped tortilla, pile on all the fixin’s and fold it up for a crispy finish. It’s B-L-E-A-T-errific!

Egg Dishes for Every Meal: Sheet Pan Brussels Sprouts with Sunny Side Eggs
Sheet Pan Brussels Sprouts with Sunny Side Eggs
This sheet can’t be beat! First, I lay a sheet with quartered Brussels sprouts and roast in the oven. Then, midway through the roasting process, I crack a few eggs over the top and let them nestle into the sprouts, allowing them to bake until the yolks are gently cooked and whites are firmed. Topped with pecorino or Parm, the dish is sprout-of-this-world good.
