Don’t toss these egg yolks!
Regardless of all of the optimistic press and ‘Eggs are Good For You’ headlines currently, it’s slightly stunning for this dietitian that I nonetheless see recipes and references suggesting that the healthiest option to eat an egg is whites solely – and to toss these shiny yellow yolks.
However right here’s the truth: Simply as with different boldly coloured meals – like kale versus iceberg lettuce – the brilliant colour of a yolk alerts it accommodates a few of the highest focus of vitamins.
In the present day, over on the Egg Diet Heart’s Diet Unscrambled weblog, I’m ticking off all of the vitamins discovered within the egg yolk; it’s a goldmine of vitamin. Right here’s only a snapshot what might be present in an egg yolk:
- 42% of the protein in an entire egg

To get pleasure from eggs for breakfast, lunch, a light-weight dinner and even dessert, I created this recipe for Apple Cheddar Bread Pudding Bites utilizing entire grain bread, apples, sharp Cheddar and sprinkle of nutmeg.
First, I made it in muffin pans and my youngsters ate the Bites as a grab-and-go breakfast; we preferred them a lot we had them for dessert too. And with just one/2 cup sugar for the entire recipe, it’s a healthful dessert! I made the Apple Cheddar Bread Pudding once more and served it in a 9×13-inch dish for brunch.
