For those who are looking to eat healthy, eat eggs. Eggs are an affordable, convenient and widely available source of protein that many people neglect to consider when weighing their healthy diet options. There is no question that eating healthy is not always easy on the wallet, but eggs are relatively low-cost and easy to prepare, as well. After a while any type of food can get boring, so consider some of the many ways you can incorporate protein-packed eggs into your diet.








1. Egg Frittatas

Frittatas are a unique way to eat eggs that can be used for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Beat a couple of eggs and add your favorite ingredients, which can depend on the time of day. For breakfast, add sausage or bacon. For lunch, add a bit of lunch meat and cheese. For dinner, add some lobster, chicken or whatever else you deem necessary. Then, pour your mixture into a glass baking dish and bake it for about 45 minutes at 350 degrees. This is a great way to get eggs into your diet and incorporate other healthy ingredients at the same time.

2. French Toast

Eggs and milk are the chief ingredient in french toast. Use whole wheat or low carb bread to bring a little more health appeal to your breakfast and prepare your french toast as usual. Add a bit of cinnamon to the egg-milk mixture for flavor, and serve with traditional scrambled eggs. It may not seem like it at first but when prepared properly french toast is a great way to get in a serving or two of eggs in the morning.

3. Stir-Fry


Scramble up a couple of eggs with your favorite vegetables and a bit of soy sauce and serve over brown rice for a quick and easy stir fry. Make a big batch and have a healthy meal for the next day, too.

4. Breakfast Sandwich

Make a breakfast sandwich as an easy way to incorporate eggs into your diet. Fry an egg and a couple pieces of turkey. Pile it all between two pieces of whole wheat toast and enjoy a simple, healthy and filling meal. Breakfast sandwiches don't have to be strictly for breakfast, either--enjoy one for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even a healthy late-night snack option.


These are just a few simple ways to eat eggs without having to resort to the plain scrambled eggs and bacon. Whether you are looking to get back in shape or just feel better about your health eggs are a sensible, cost-effective option for healthy eating.

You don't have to bore yourself to death by having scrambled or fried eggs all the time. There are other, more unique ways of preparing eggs and making them an interesting and useful part of your diet. Incorporate a few healthy ingredients and come up with your own healthy egg dishes and get in that extra protein without a second thought.
