What’s the Nutrition in Eggs?

Eggs are truly one of the most nutritious foods you can eat. And for those on Keto, they are especially good because not only are they loaded with vitamins and minerals, (B2, B12, B5, A, and Selenium) and are a high quality protein, they’re are a good source of healthy fats!

As stated in this article from Healthline, ” Eggs contain amounts of almost every vitamin and mineral required by the human body, including calcium, iron, potassium, zinc, manganese, vitamin E, folate and many more.”

Tips for Perfectly Boiled Eggs

To boil an egg, start by covering the egg with cold water in a pot. Then, bring the water to a boil. Once the water starts boiling, turn the burner down to low heat and slightly simmer. The cooking time will depend on the size of your eggs how you like your eggs cooked. Below is a guide to help you decide:

• 6-7 minutes for a soft, runny yolk but a firm white.
• 8-9 minutes for a slightly soft yolk but not liquid.
• 10-11 minutes for yolks that’s mostly cooked through but slightly soft in the center.
• 12–13 minutes is best for fully hard-boiled eggs that are not over-cooked.
